Replay Gain / volume levelling rule
bliss should add a Replay Gain or volume levelling rule so that all music in my music collection can be levelled for volume.

Definitely would be nice. Right now I'm using a batch script I found either on some random blog or a gist that runs metaflac over the flac files and applies replaygain tags. Which is fine right now, as I'm literally re-ripping my entire library, after one hard drive failed, and the other backup was in a computer that was stolen. Right now I'm using fre-ac, sound-juicer(when the CD isn't in fre-ac's cddb entries[hopefully MusicBrainz support gets added soon to fre-ac as the developer says it's now moved up in priority with freedb having gone away]) as sound-juicer is way slower than fre-ac. In the long run it would be nice to rip and forget in the future when I'm just adding new CD's.

Replay gain support is a must have.

Note that the R128 algorithm/method is an emerging standard in this space and should probably be implemented too!

Nice feature but pretty complicated to implement. Use dbpoweramp non destructive ReplayGain feature (implemented as a "coded") for both track and album in the meantime.

It would be nice if there was a rule to at least identify files that are missing the REPLAYGAIN tags even if there was no mechanism to calculate and add them.

Or at least a requirement for the tags like genre and year. (I use track and not album)

I definitely would like this, automatically applying gain to mp3, flac or ogg files,
