Josh Coalson has released FLAC version 1.2.  You can read all about it

The change log is here: http://flac.sourceforge.net/changelog.html

My quick 'n dirty testing seems to show that my Transporter with
firmware 31 has no trouble decoding flacs encoded with version 1.2.  I
tested both single-track-to-a-file flacs that are streamed directly by
slimserver to the Transporter and whole-album flacs which are
transcoded server-side flac to flac before getting streamed.  In the
latter case, I replaced the stock flac binary that comes with
slimserver with the latest version from the flac sourceforge site:
http://flac.sourceforge.net/download.html

Since flac can now directly transcode flac to flac, you should update
the convert.conf file for this:

Code:
--------------------
    
  flc flc transcode *
        [flac] -c --totally-silent --compression-level-0 --skip=$START$ 
--until=$END$ $FILE$ 
  
--------------------

This causes just one instance of flac to be spawned instead of two,
which saves cpu resources, helps prevent global warming and other good
stuff.
