Hi, thank you very much for the great loudnorm filter!

1. Is it possible to switch the LRA-Leveler off in order to get a static normalizion processing, that works with fixed gain and limiting?
2. Would it be possible to get MaxMomentary and MaxShortTerm Loudness into the json log file?

Thank you for your help - Wolfgang
