As there's no dedicated true-peak limiter in ffmpeg audio filters (if I'm not wrong), I tried with loudnorm filter, but even when entering same input and output Integrated and LRA values, there's some corrections that are made. Is there any way to tell loudnorm to just adjust true-peak and leave anything else unchanged ?

Thanks Marton, that makes sense.


Best regards,
