Well sorry if I upset you with the google for it, however google is a
tool that everyone needs to learn how to use.  Right if you have no
keywords to go on it can be hard, and you can use google to refine your
keywords, in fact that is the skill people need to learn.  And if you
put FLAC in you should have found the FLAC homepage, which has a nice
listing of programs to use with FLAC and even links to how to use them.
This is where that info should be, not on slimdevices IMHO.  Now yes
that guide I sent you to is on an outdated version of EAC, however it
will still work if you follow it.  I know I use it all the time with my
latest version of EAC.
