I'm trying to normalize a TV capture audio and encode to MP2 with BeSweet. I've done this probably hundreds of times without any problems, but now it seems that the PreGain normalizing doesn't work. The result is as quiet as the original WAV clip.
If I use HybridGain, the audio is normalized properly.
Here's the log:
