similar to: RE: Converting to 1.1.4, help please!

"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 have no idea whether the metadata blocks would be preserved more easily without the

You're right it decodes to WAV then re-encodes.. it uses flac option "-w" (warnings as error) and checks for error return codes.. if an error occurs it restores the original file and reports the problem when it fnishes or you ^C the program.. After re-encoding it deletes the wav, reads the original FLAC's metadata blocks (minus streaminfo and seektable) and writes them to

Thanks Jud, I was able 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

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

Harry, I wrote a little command line utility for this in C# - the lib it uses is a little 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:

hi, does somebody else knows more software that can display the embedded picture in FLAC files? The software must run on windows. thx 2007/4/10, Jud White <jwhite@cdtag.com>: > > I just installed foo_ui_columns and foo_uie_albumart, however the > albumart plugin only supports images in the directory.

Hi, I'm looking for an audio player with native support for flac embedded pictures. I use Amarok (http://amarok.kde.org/) in linux, but I can't find any player in Windows that has this same native support for embedded flac pictures. I hope somebody can help me thanks in advance! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

I tried that approach a while ago and failed miserably. Marshalling the structs of structs in the flac lib turned out to be a nightmare (I don't pretend to be an expert, mind you...). I eventually switched to writing my own C# lib from scratch. Work is still under progress. It's no rocket science, I do this a G-job. It has definite limitations (no documentation, decodes only 16-bit files,

Does anyone know what block type 7 is, if anything, other than reserved? Some application is writing this block type, but I'm not sure which. Thanks, Jud

hi, I tried to put a picture in a FLAC file (I'm learning all the command line options), but unfortunately I can't find any software that can display the picture when playing the file. I tried Winamp, VLC media player, ... but none of them displays the picture. Can somebody tell me what player I need to actually see this picture while playing the FLAC file? thx -------------- next part

Jud, why would you write this in .NET and limit its portability? flac runs on Unix and Mac OS X, so if you were to write in C/C++ then your tool would be available to everyone who can run flac.

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

Apologies in advance - I'm sure there's something quite obvious I'm not doing correctly, but since I'm unable to resolve the problem myself.... I've installed Dovecot 99.14 on FreeBSD-CURRENT using the Dovecot FreeBSD port. My "network" consists of a cable modem connected to a router which is in turn connected (only) to my computer. My ISP assigns a dynamic IP

So before i knew better, i encoded a lot of my CDs in flac and added id3 tags (they worked, so great!). I know i've seen mention of others doing this; anyone gone to the trouble to write a tag conversion tool? Shouldn't be too tough, but i'd rather not reinvent the wheel. danno -- dan pritts danno@umich.edu 734-929-9770

is wrapping c++ any easier? because there is libFLAC++ otherwise, if you only need a certain subset of what FLAC does it might be easier to write a smaller C interface + wrapper implementation, then import that in c#.

I am using CDex to encode my music into Flac. I am using the latest version of Flac (with the frontend etc.) and sending the rips to it as an 'external encoder' with the string: -8 -o %2 -T "artist=%a" -T "title=%t" -T "album=%b" -T "date=%y" -T "tracknumber=%tn" -T "genre=%g" - However, I am getting the below output/error with
