Expanding ReplayGain functionality #140

I've been playing around with different music players and noticed a few things missing:

  1. No default value for untagged/unsupported files/formats. I'm one of those people that has their music collection in different file formats and as such, some files are volume adjusted and some aren't, leading to huge volume differences. As a result, I had to disable R.G. completely, because in other apps, I could just set the "default" value to -11dB for a better-than-nothing experience.
  2. While there's no standard way of doing it, there're de-facto agreed-upon tags used to enable R.G. for WMA files. See this ticket for more info. (p.s. Winamp is pretty buggy under Wine, that's why I stopped using it in the first place.)

Other than that, Guayadeque is still the best Linux music player!

Thanks for your comments. For default replay gain you can set it in Preferences -> Playback -> ReplayGainMode Track and set the Gain level

Guayadeque dont set the replay gain tags or let you edit them. The replay gain tags are handled internally by gstreamer.
