## Frequently asked questions

### Does fingerprinting change the audio?

No. It creates an identity value for matching or cataloging and does not apply effects.

### Should silence be removed before reporting it?

No. Report the source as received so unexpected padding or gaps remain visible.

### Can a loudness report prove compliance?

It provides measurements; the acceptance target must come from the applicable specification.
