Can "Calculate Replay Gain" only process new files?

Any chance of tweaking Calculate Replay Gain to add a few options?
1) Calculate Replay Gain (Only "new" files)
2) Re-Calculate Replay Gain (Force ALL files)

Assume someone gave me a DVD with 1000 songs, and I just did a drag and drop into my collection.

Since I don't know what files exactly were added, I must select ALL albums to calculate Replay Gain.

On my 1.5 GHz system, it takes one hour to process 231 mp3 files. So, 1000/231 = 4.3 hours.

BUT, since I already have 5000 existing files, they will ALL be processed: 6000/231 = almost 26 hours!

When I was researching MP3gain, I noticed it would just display previous calculated values, instead of taking the time to recalculate all the values all over again.

Thanks, Mike

Moved from Bug Reports to Wishlist (how is this a bug, exactly?)

Well, you could add all files to the media library then go to:
ML > Local Media > Recently Added
and calculate replay gain just for those newly added ones.

Sorry, I was thinking since it processed the same files it already processed, it was a bug.

And, thanks about the Recently Added... I had forgotten about that.

Thanks, Mike
