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 wasn’t suggesting that you run metaflac, but that you examine its source to see how it creates new FLAC files without the Vorbis comment. As far as I know, metaflac uses the standard libFLAC and creates files without the Vorbis overhead. My quick review of the source seemed to indicate that calling FLAC__metadata_object_new(FLAC__METADATA_TYPE_VORBIS_COMMENT) will create the comment, but I

Correction, the flac command-line does create a 40-byte Vorbis comment by default. I just never noticed it before. I’ve been using —no-padding all these years for minimal file sizes without realizing that I could save another 40 bytes. Anyway, since metaflac can remove the Vorbis comment using the standard library, then you should be able to create a solution without modifying libFLAC. Brian

I'm uploading some very large flac files, and I've had to use the Unix command 'split' to break the files into smaller pieces. This works well, but my only concern is that I want to make sure I get all the pieces back together in the right order, without any missing pieces or partial files. "flac -t filename.flac" works perfectly. It will detect a truncated

In windows command line: I have a wav file and would like to see what the flac fingerprint would be. To do this I run flac to encode the wav file and write the flac file to the hard disk. I then run metaflac to read the flac file and display the fingerprint. Is there an existing way or other utility to do this without generating the flac file on the hard disk. I would think it could be quicker

Hi I have downloaded a FLAC file somewhere and when trying to decode it to WAV it gives the error message: ERROR, MD5 signature mismatch So my question is now: are FLAC files that give the error message above still decodable to WAV (and how can you do this, because flac.exe doesn't want to decode the file), even if there is a MD5 signature mismatch, or is this not possible at all? thx

The problem is really as I wrote: 1. Metaflac is no option for me, I use libFLAC.dll 2. There is no way (at least how I read the code) to avoid saving comment with libFLAC; I would appreciate an extra option to avoid it, which can default to old behavior if compatibility is important. 3. I have a high speed application, where re-initializing an encoder is really significant. On corner cases it

If md5sum --check did not return an error with a truncated file, then the file was likely broken to start with. I think the chances of a corrupted file generating the same md5sum is close enough to 0 that you will never see it in a life time. Also, you lost me on storing the md5sum value at the begging and the end? On Wed, Jul 29, 2009 at 4:44 AM, Dat Head <dathead2 at gmail.com> wrote:

I found an old thread from 2007: http://www.mail-archive.com/flac at xiph.org/msg00702.html I have a user who is getting this same "MD5 Signature mismatch." 2 times he told me he got it today: 1 time: using the flac 1.2.1 encoder (command line compiled from official flac src) on a g5 (power pc) mac, he created a file set and uploaded to archive.org. archive.org uses flac 1.2.1

Hi Justin, Are you saying that 24-bit support does not work for you? Which version of FLAC are you using? What platform? What kind of files are you trying to compress? I am not any kind of official spokesperson for FLAC, but this alleged report about 24-bit problems surfaced in Aug 2006. However, I have been successfully using 24-bit FLAC since June of 2004, and I have never seen a

Hi Neil, I think you have a misunderstanding or two. What you want to do does not require "code." In fact, you might want to move your question from the FLAC-Dev list to the FLAC (User) list. I'm on both lists, so I did not realize that you were basically asking in the wrong place. No "coding" skills whatsoever are required to create seekpoint markers in a

Hello, ? I have to create a new column from the values of other columns of a data frame. The new?column (y$n) is created imposing a condition (using a third variable y$h) that assigns the values of two time variables (y$b and y$timepos). Here's the piece of code to get there (using the attached files): ? xact <- read.table("act.lig", sep = ',',

You could also try SoX. It looks like that program could convert directly from FLAC to MP3, but I haven't tried it. I have a Sound Devices recorder that supports FLAC, but it doesn't play all files from external sources. It's great for recording to FLAC, but not so good for playing files purchased online in FLAC format. Brian Willoughby Sound Consulting On Jun 5, 2016, at 5:28 PM,

"Aren't Windows users accustomed to this feature being missing anyway?" I use Mac mostly now, but when I used Windows, now and then I always expected the wildcard to work, it just worked on most things so it was actually a bit of a pain in the ass when it didn't.
