First, thanks to everyone for putting in their time to make the first truly "free" lossless audio codec. I'm co-founder of etree.org, the largest online community of lossless audio traders (currently 12,000 active members). We have been living in the shadow of Shorten for almost three years. Shorten, as most of you have come to realize, is extremely limited in terms of

Great info. I found some descriptions of st5 (md5 fp) and ffp, where I assume that "fp" is just a Taper abbreviation for "fingerprint" - or signature as it's called in the flac header. However, I could not find these utilities or source code. What I found looked like instructions for a gui-based program. I think it would be easier to support Mac if st5 were

I've got a bunch of flac files and need to report their length. With MP3s, you use `mp3info -x $filename` But is there a way to find out the length (minutes:seconds or just seconds) of a flac audio file, without converting it to WAV first?

shntool (http://etree.org/shnutils/, http://shnutils.freeshell.org/) is Windows-only, but the source is available. > Great info.

For one thing,

Hi, A user at the www.thetradersden.org website reported a difference when fixing "sector boundary errors" in CD-quality WAV files with shntool and flac. As as result of investigating this, I think I've found a bug in the zero-ising of the buffer used to zero-pad the last file when encoding with the --sector-align option. My test consisted of the creation of four

is anyone using the --sector-align option of flac, or flac frontend, or shntool? that option actually complicates the flac code a lot and I would like to take it out if possible. it really belongs in a higher level encoding or burning tool. if you are using it, let me know which tool you use it with and if it's with wave, aiff, or raw files.

This is a fantastic selling point, and one that I've never really thought of. Back in the early days of etree (a whole three years ago ;) ), before we learned the virtues of MD5 sums for SHN downloads, I downloaded a Hornsby show from someone. Of course, an MD5 wasn't available, but when I decompressed and Shoren didn't throw a sanity error my way, I figured all was well. I burned

Pyxml/xmlproc is being used in tools/xen/xm/xenapi_create.py but is unmaintained for several years now. xmlproc is used only for validating XML documents against a DTD file. This patch replaces the pyxml/xmlproc based XML validation with code based on lxml, which is actively maintained. Signed-off-by: Stephan Peijnik <spe@anexia.at> diff -r 6e0ffcd2d9e0 -r 7082ce86e492

Thanks for all the responses to my question. I think I can use shntool hash option for my project I did not find in the shntool documentation or flac documentation that the hash or st5 always would match the flac fingerprint. But at least in a couple tests I did they matched. And I found some more comments around the internet indicating they were the same. -----Original Message----- From:

This is a suggestion for adding to rsync an option "--checksum-path=PROGRAM". Once this option is given, provided it is accompained by option "--checksum", both the receiving and sending side of rsync would compute checksums calling PROGRAM, instead of the usual checksum program. Why is this usefull? Suppose I have two collections of MP3 files at different locations which I

Hello, all, I'm a newby to FLAC who is used to making .txt source files for his SHN discs. :) I made my first secure EAC > WAV> FAC file days ago and am trying to get proper "source file" info figured out..

Which plugins do you mean? I thought I remember Winamp, for instance, being able to do word-length reduction on the fly. The only place I can find this feature is in the Monkey's Audio codec plugin, though. Anyway, great news Josh! Thanks for making 24-bit audio support in FLAC a priority. :) MW On Tue, 11 Jun 2002, Josh Coalson wrote: > --- Mike Wren <mikew@etree.org>
