similar to: Compare Audio Content of Two Flac Files

I see that this was the right place to fire off this question. Thanks for your feedback. It has given me a base to start some trials. I used to use EAC on Windows, but I tend to only use open source software as much as possible and I don't use Windows any more. I gave a brief look at abcde, but it is clear I need to look at this some more. It looks like it has the potential to do everything I

hi, does anybody knows a website where I can download free FLAC music? I already know this one: http://www.rozhlas.cz/d-dur/download_eng thx -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

This is more of an EAC question, but I have not yet received an answer from my post on that page. Since they are closely related I thought I would give it a try here. I just bought a BIG stack of CDs (70+) and decided to recheck all of my EAC (beta 4) + FLAC (1.1.2) settings prior to ripping and encoding them. I also calibrated a new external Plextor CD-ROM too. The setting string I use in

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

This must be possible; not sure how to do it yet. :) After facing the thought of going through my cd collection for a 3rd time for re-encoding, it occurred to me that I should just flac the whole CD and add a cue sheet, and then back up to DVDs. That way -next- time I need to re-encode to any format, I can handle ~1/20th the discs, compared to my whole cd collection. :) Wondering if

I've been having problems with Amarok and K3B, but I think it comes down to a problem with flac. All my music and audio files are encoded in flac format. I've ripped my CDs using KAudioCreator and using this command to encode them (split for formatting): flac --best -o %o --tag=Artist=%{artist} --tag=Album=%{albumtitle} --tag=Date=%{year} --tag=Title=%{title}

I have FLAC files that I would like to re-encode with --replay-gain. I have my Flac's organized in Artist/Album folders, so I should have no problem getting an album gain/peak per album. Do I need to first de-code the flac's to wav files and then "flac --replay-gain *.wav", or can this be accomplished by going to each Album directory and "flac -f --replay-gain

I'm just wondering if someone wrote a perl script to convert a directory with flac files into mp3 and preserving the id3 tag from flac to mp3? I have two harddrives where I keep my favorite CDs in flac and others in mp3 but when I get tired of them, I move them into mp3 and rather than popping the original CD in, it might be easier to just convert from flac to mp3 directly. Please cc me on

***ATTENTION MOD*** - My original submission to you was bounced because I sent it from the wrong email address. This is a resubmitted of that email. Thanks! OK, I've encoded ALL of my 437 CDs into FLAC after ripping them (secure mode) with EAC (man, I never want to have to do that again! Took forever!). Yes, I backed it up on 2 different removable hard drives! After all of that I

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

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.

Surely it would be possible to have something apply the ReplayGain to the WAV after decoding and prior to writing them to CD... but I don't know

this is a little off-topic, but i want to get a sense of "best practices" for tagging flac files. i want to archive my entire cd collection as flac files (onto a few of those new western digital 120GB drives). as part of encoding the flac files, i'd like to add 1. id3v2 tags (preferably automatically gotten from freedb) 2. timed lyrics a la lyrics3 v2 (is there a freedb-like

Dear all, I am an active FLAC user and like the program a lot! Thanks for your great work. Since I am not a developer I cannot modify the program on my own. Maybe you might be interested in features I would find useful. Maybe others find them interesting as well and you find the time to implement them. 1. Add encoder options: a) Skip silence (leading and ending) would give the option to skip

well, I took a look at the files. from my knowledge of shorten there are two things it does that flac doesn't do: 1. it estimates the mean of the signal for each block, subtracts it out and stores it separately. but this is pretty useless for the predictors that shorten uses as they are pretty insensitive to the mean (try different values of -m from 0 to whatever and note practically no
