No, I checked that, but the help says that the command is run before
encoding. Vorbisgain needs to be run after encoding of all the files of
an album are encoded, when using album mode. It doesn't change the
actual music data; the gain is added as a tag that i.e. xmms or beep
understands.

I have 3.2. Are there any new config options in 3.3.1?

Thanks for replying.
