Media Center includes a [[library tool]] called '''Analyze Audio''' that analyzes an audio or video file and stores information about that file in the [[Library]] and optionally in the file's [[Tags]]. For example, analyze audio will assess the file's loudness, dynamic range, and beats per minute. These tags are used by Media Center for some DSP functions, like [[Volume Leveling]] and [[Adaptive Volume]], and can also be a source of useful information. |
