Someone try this on a test music directory and see if this works in
cmd.exe.....
cd c:\MusicDirectory
FOR /F "usebackq delims==" %i IN (`dir /B /S *.flac`) DO flac -t %i && flac -8V
%i
I don't fully understand the syntax of FOR loops in dos.. The instructions
seem a bit lacking..... Windows is a strange beast indeed.

Under linux/bash, it would be something like....
cd /MusicDirectory
find . -type f -name "*.flac" -exec sh -c 'flac -t {} && flac -8V {}' \;
Or to simplify and not test each file before re-encode....
find . -type f -name "*.flac" -exec flac -8 {} \; -print
Can someone translate this into NTBatch? Basically, recursive "dir" *.flac
files as a nested command into a for loop or something? I'd hate to suggest
someone install cygwin just because I don't remember how to script in dos. No
need for a "GUI" when you can one-line it.
