As someone who downloads or buys their music to listen to via VLC, it’s quite annoying when the volume level between files aren’t consistent. Especially when I’m unable to easily to change the volume like when I’m doing physical labor as an example. So it can go from a perfectly reasonable volume, to damaging my ears, and then to where I can barely hear. I was thinking of going in and manually editing them myself to be consistent amongst each other at some point, but then it got me thinking. Is there an application that will equalize the volume on your audio files for you? If not, would anyone else have a use for one besides me? I’d love to know either way.

    Well, I forgot to mention that I don’t just use these audio files on my Linux machine. I use SyncThingy in order to use the same files on my phone as well (which runs LineageOS). So, unless VLC for Android also has that feature, I would prefer a solution that works regardless of which platform I’m using, thus why I was looking to do re-encoding on Linux. Though admittedly, I was also wondering if the answer was no because I thought I might have finally found a decent idea for a project
