rganalysis: parallel replay gain scanning for songs of the same album
Last modified: 2018-05-01 14:46:48 UTC
Hi! when writing a little python script for scanning files using the rganalysis plugin, I discovered that it's impossible to scan tracks which belong to one album in parallel. Only multiple albums can be scanned simultaneously. This is sad, because on a typical modern PC this can speed up the process considerably! I had several ideas for implementing this (expose the internal histogram via messages, allow "merging" of two rganalysis objects, etc), but none of them is good. That's why I'm posting this enhancement request, maybe someone has an idea! If you think this feature is irrelevant / not wanted, this bug report can be closed!
Sounds like a good idea but I wouldn't know how to properly implement that in GStreamer
I also think this needs to be on the app level, by running several pipelines in parallel. Johannes, would this work for you?
Yes I think app level works well enough!
