Can I hijack the thread now? Too late!

"Another Sillyname" how are you normalising the audio volume? I normally transcode everything so I can view on mobile / stream while out-and-about and have noticed that some shows seem very quite compared to others at what seems to be the same volume setting. I would be interested in your code for normalising the volume because I might be able to do that at the same time.
