#REDIRECT [[ReplayGain]]
Replaygain being present in the specs of flac, mpc and ape formats, any player that support those formats usually support replaygain.
+
 
+
The situation with MP3 is rather different, as it was not part of the mp3 specs. The APEv2 tags metadata implementation is somewhat becoming the de-facto standard.
+
 
+
==Windows==
+
* [[Foobar2000]] supports replaygain in all possible aspects. (it can also calculate replaygain)
+
* [[Winamp]]. MP3 replaygain support with adequate plugins (e.g. [http://www3.cypress.ne.jp/otachan/in_mpg123.html Otachan's in_mpg123] - if your japanese is not that good, you can find details [http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=18530 in this thread])
+
* [[XMPlay]] recently implemented replaygain
+
 
+
and probably others.
+
 
+
==Linux==
+
* [[XMMS]]. Reads replaygain from FLAC, MPC, ogg ..
+
For mp3, use the CVS version of the [http://xmms-mad.sourceforge.net/ xmms-mad]  mp3 plugin (it's not yet released as binaries, furthermore not available in distribs' versions for now. Meanwhile binaries are available there : [http://perso.crans.org/~krempp/xmms-mad/ custom binaries])
+
* [[amaroK]]. By using the amaroK-script [http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=26073 ReplayGain]
+
 
+
and possibly others, since [http://developer.kde.org/~wheeler/taglib.html TagLib] added support for APEv2 tags in mp3 files, players using this library (like [[amaroK]] and [[JuK]]) might support that kind of replaygain tags in the near future.
+
 
+
==Portable devices==
+
Current development builds of [http://www.rockbox.org/ Rockbox] for the iRiver H100 series players support replaygain for some encoder formats.  This is a rapidly evolving feature.  There are no other portable players known to support replaygain.
+
 
+
The iPod features ''Soundcheck'', which seems to produce roughly the same normalization gains as replaygain, but doesnt provide an Album Gain.
