Normalize option in
qaac puts
--normalize switch in its execution in the shell like this:
Code:
qaac64.exe --tvbr 62 --delay -0.001 --normalize
And this works like this in
qaac encoding:
Code:
...
Scanning maximum peak...
4960208/-1 samples processed in 0:00.328
Peak value: 0.535645
...
If nothing happens, that's something related to your source and
qaac encoder. Maybe your source audio already has a peak value that doesn't need to be changed. Then you need to do something other than simply shifting the volume to change the peak value.
dynaudnorm can be a useful alternative in this case.

Your
AC3 encoder profile makes use of
ffmpeg as you can see the command line in the bottom.
And it's a matter of course your custom options don't work
directly with
qaac since
dynaudnorm is an
ffmpeg only filter.
If you'd like to make use of your favorite
dynaudnorm options, you need to either
1) put them in
qaac Advanced Audio Options like I showed in the screenshot, or
2) choose
ffmpeg instead of
qaac as the
AAC encoder.
2) will certainly work, but I'm not sure whether
1) will work seamlessly. Check it out yourself.
You need to examine the log file to see how your settings work.
And if normalization does not work, try to find where the
dynaudnorm options are missing, and report to @stax76 about this.
