...ble to re-encode my entire FLAC archive into 1.1.4, although on my slow computer (with all other apps closed) it took over 3 days to complete! Only one song returned an error and that was quite easy to fix. I did run into one issue though. I have a FLAC album in which the songs are all 24/96 and REFLAC fails when it runs. I want to re-encode them from compression level 5 down to level 1 since my streaming setup chokes a bit on the level 5 compression and others have had no issues with level 1. Here is the error text that I see when I attempt to run it: F:\FLAC\ReFLAC>reflac -r -1 ---------...

Hey Jud, Thanks! I copied two of my FLAC folders (CDs) into a temp dir just to test it out and see if I could get it to run. I put the four unzipped files into the dir folder and opened a cmd window using the same options you suggested: "reflac -r -8 -nw -nb" It looks as though it first converts the files to WAV then re-encode them into FLAC 1.1.4 then deletes the WAV, correct? I was worried that the tags might vanish, but when I opened the files in both MP3Tag and Rio Manager all of the tags were there and correct. I understand t...

"reflac" seems like a decent script for being absolutely certain about the conversion, but I can't help but think that it would run 5 times faster without the "flac -t" and also using a single flac re- encode without the intermediate WAV file. I haven't done this before, so I...

...overkill for the task but it does work. As Josh noted there is no compression gain, so I wouldn't bother unless you have FLAC's encoded with older versions. I also think Josh said there's a .BAT file out there that does the same thing. Here's the file: http://idsharp.com/download/reflac02.zip It creates backups and shows encoder/decoder windows by default, you can turn these off with -nb (no backups) and -nw (no windows). Have flac.exe in the same directory as the tool and run something like: reflac -8 -r "c:\flac" Which will reflac all .flac files in c:\flac, revursi...

hi I have some questions about re-encoding existing FLAC files to FLAC 1.2.0.: - can older 1.1.x FLAC files be re-encoded to FLAC 1.2.0 by using the FLAC 1.2.0 encoder? - can FLAC files encoded with the FLAC Flake SVN encoder (or any other 'unofficial' FLAC encoder) be re-encoded by using the FLAC 1.2.0 encoder? thx in advance! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment

My FLAC files reside on my Infrant NV (XRAID) and are also backed up on my PC and on an external USB HDD. That makes 3 copies. I've read most everything on the FLAC site, but as I have mentioned I don't know much about structuring a command line. My PC is also quite old (early P4 from 2000 w/256MB RAM) so I think it will take a LOT of time for this to run through over 1200 CDs worth of

A question that someone asked me, cut and pasted from another board: >>I've got 8 cores on my machine and while encoding only one processor is used, and maxed out. Is there any way to distribute the load across multi-cores?<< I have no idea what the answer to this is. The question was about flac on OS X Scott
