Would you want your limiter also to raise the volume when the music gets too quiet, or only to limit the volume during loud parts?

Simply, it just limits the volume to a certain maximum limit.

Example: setting -3 db as a limit

I want it to be like iPod's volume control limit

markun:
So you want to limit the value of the volume setting, not the actual volume itself (which also depends on the audio file being played) ? Can you explain In which cases that would be useful?

Also, I don't see how that could be done with a plugin...

It would be useful for those who always wanted this as a setting.

But seeing it can't be done as a plugin, I'll abandon the project.

Just because a feature isn't wanted in the official Rockbox code, doesn't mean you shouldn't implement it for your own pleasure...

Couldn't you just not raise the volume above whatever level you want as the limit?  Having an option who's sole purpose is to change the range of values on another option is pretty silly IMO.
