Flac - May 2007 - 1.1.4 FLAC's in 1.1.2

Quick question - if I use 1.1.4 to encode some files and send them to a
friend who is using 1.1.2 - is it possible he won't be able to decode them?


Having some trouble with this, wondering if the above could be related.

Thanks,

- Brad

No.

I can't find the thing on the FLAC website that
says this, but if I recall right, all versions of
FLAC are forwards-compatible unless the middle
version number changes. So if it was, say, 1.1.4
versus 1.0.1, you might, possibly, have a problem.
Both versions 1.1.x? No compatibility issue.
