[Bug-gnupod] SoundCheck/ReplayGain

[chris.com]

Hello,

I've been using gnupod for a while now and I think it is really cool not 
to be bound to iTunes any more.
I fill my iPod shuffle every other day with a random collection of songs 
but I can't get the SoundCheck/ReplayGain to work.
My situation is this:
- iPod shuffle 2nd generation
- a music collection in FLAC ReplayGain-tagged
- gnupod 0.99.7

I first fetch the RG-tag from the FLAC file and transform it to its 
SoundCheck equivalent
Then I transform the file with flac and lame to a music-only mp3 file 
(no tags).
Next I add (with id3v2) an iTunNORM comment field to the mp3 file and 
fill it with ten copies of the SoundCheck value (as seen on 
hydrogenaudio.org)
And finally I addsong the file to the iPod.

mktunes picks up the SoundCheck data correctly; I can see the value in 
the iTunesDB file, but the iPod doesn't seem to see it, because the 
volume doesn't get adjusted.
iTunes as well reads the SoundCheck value I added correctly because when 
I plug and unplug it with iTunes without changing anything,
iTunes recreates the iTunesBD file (with my own SoundCheck value) and 
now the volume gets adjusted correctly.

It's a long story, I hope someone can help me with this.
