[LAU] Playing .mp3 from playlist with equal volume

[Gerald Pechoc]

Hi Ralf,

maybe it was the normalize routine of VLC which made this bad effect.

I have now found that the raplygain scanned by Foobar2000 can be played 
from Clementine, but not by VLC. I have tried both entries for raplygain 
(Track and Album) but neither nor it worked.

I hope that Clementine is running under Linux Mint 17 (should be based 
on 16.04 Ubuntu).

Regards
Gerald
