One pass normalize filter between mlt files

[brian]

There is a discussion here which is relevant:

How does normalizing work across clips?

Yeah. I see what you mean. When you put the filter on a track, it watches for discontinuities (like the start of a new clip) and it resets the averaging window. A workaround is to add the filter to the Output of the timeline instead of of the track: [image] The side effect of this is that it applies normalization to the entire project, not just the one track.

The next release will include an option to disable the discontinuity detection.

Some options in the mean-time:

• Put the filter on the output instead of a track
• Apply a gain filter on each clip so that their average sound is closer
• Add a compressor filter in addition to the normalize filter to smooth out transitions
