That’s because I don’t support the volume tag, so until iTunes gets a chance to actually see the volume tag (by streaming the song), it doesn’t know what it is.
At some point I’ll add that — I have replaygain and iTunes volume conversion formulas so I’ll probably implement that at some point.

Is it possible for the server to do it?
i.e, you do a scan to find newly added content, it finds it, adds to db, runs reply gain, etc? (maybe even gapless? artwork?)
Is that possible?

Yeah, but it’s not something I’d do at the server level. I’d set up a cron job to do replaygains on incoming music separate from the server.
A good workflow might be to throw all new music in an incoming directory and have a cron job replaygain it, and move it into the daap music directory.
that is, I think it should be be done outside the server, IAW the “do one thing well” philosophy.
