I also use FLAC images + cues.  However, though I embed the cue in the
.flac file, I also keep the .cue file around.  This seems to work
pretty well, execpt that I can't forward/rewind within tracks on the
SB, and there seem to be some tags that don't read from the .cue file.

I really wish there were a way to put album sort and artist sort tags
in cue files that SlimServer would recognize.

My cues are modified from the ones generated by EAC, for example:


Code:
--------------------
        REM GENRE "New Age;Acoustic Guitar"
  REM DATE 1981
  REM YEAR "1981"
  REM DISCID 60082208
  PERFORMER "Will Ackerman"
  TITLE "Passage"
  FILE "Will Ackerman - Passage.flac" WAVE
  TRACK 01 AUDIO
  TITLE "Remedios"
  PERFORMER "Will Ackerman"
  INDEX 01 00:00:00
  TRACK 02 AUDIO
  TITLE "Processional"
  PERFORMER "Will Ackerman"
  INDEX 00 05:11:02
  INDEX 01 05:11:52
  <snip>
--------------------


I make sure the genre is in quotes.  I'm using a semi-colon to separate
multiple genres - great feature.  And I add the line to get the year to
work in SlimServer.  Also note that the FILE line is modified to point
to the .flac file. I have a Ruby script that goes through all my cues
and and fixes them up, verifying that they match the info in my local
freedb/cddb.

I really, really wish there were a way to put album sort and artist
sort tags in cue files that SlimServer would recognize.

Here is an example of the command I use to make .flac files:


Code:
--------------------
    flac --delete-input-file --verify --best --replay-gain --cuesheet="Will 
Ackerman - Passage.cue" "Will Ackerman - Passage.wav"
--------------------


I convert to .flac in a separate step from ripping.
