@ -7,7 +7,7 @@ The following is a list of answers to questions regarding the use of the exhale
Can the exhale application write or copy metadata to an encoded file?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
If, by metadata, you mean iTunes-style artist/song/cover metadata: no, and there currently is no plan to add support for this. See [this question](https://gitlab.com/ecodis/exhale/-/wikis/faq#i-get-corrupted-files-when-encoding-using-exhale-via-foobar2000-why) for a work-around. If you are talking about ReplayGain-style peak/loudness metadata: this is taken care of by the dynamic range control (DRC) metadata according to [ISO/IEC 23003-4](https://www.iso.org/standard/75930.html), which is supported since version 1.0.1 of this software. See also the exhale release notes in the `include` subdirectory. Note, however, that album loudness data is not explicitly supported by the exhale application (since it can only treat each audio file independently).

The program loudness is measured according to [ITU-R BS.1770-4](https://www.itu.int/rec/R-REC-BS.1770), with an additional 500 Hz high-pass applied. Details will follow.
How does the bit-rate mode of the exhale application or library work?

Then click on `Back`. If you use the "Converter Setup" window to convert your audio files into the xHE-AAC format, don't forget to select the exhale encoder under `Output format` (see the [README.md](https://gitlab.com/ecodis/exhale/blob/master/README.md) file for details).

I compiled exhale into a DLL. How can I use it in my own applications?
