How is the correct way to use Replay Gain
#2
Kodi uses 4 replaygain values:  track gain, album gain, track peak, album peak.  All are optional (though at least one of track or album gain is needed).

The tag must be formatted as eg. REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_GAIN

I'm not 100% on the allowed data, but is should work as + or - n.nnnn dB for the gains.

The assumption is that the gain value is to reproduce at 89 dB.  The can be changed in the music player settings.

You turn on gain control in the music player settings.  Track gain uses that if available.  Album gain uses that if available then falls back to track gain.

You can also enable peak control.  If the peak values are available, they will reduce the output from 89 dB by the value of the peak.

You can turn on debug level logging in settings, and it will log the replaygain found and applied during playback of music to the kodi.log file.  It will also show you during a scan of new music files if the replaygain tag was ignored (if it doesn't log it assume it was accepted).
