Unfortunately, I have no idea how the file got so corrupted. There isn't really a pattern to the corruption here. It's only happened on a small number of albums, but each file within it.
The only thing that is supposed to touch these files is EAC during the initial encode, then I use flac2mp3 to create a low-bitrate MP3 copy and then I paste the tag data in MP3Tag from the MP3 to FLAC once I have looked it up with Windows Media Player (I'm still to find as good a source for tags as AMG). Some of the files (and maybe these ones are in that category) spent some time on my laptop, so they were probably added to the WMP library through the use of the WMP Tag Extender plugin. To me it appears that this plugin never writes to the FLAC files, desptie its claim to do so, so maybe that's the origin of the problem. Finally I have had a small number of files encoded into APE and then recoded to FLAC through Foobar, but I never had any problems there. Funnily enough, SC did not see these additional tags until v 7.4 which is why I never had any idea this was going on. Thanks for all the suggestions. I will try to strip all the tag info using metadata and retag the files. There aren't that many. -- Wigster ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Wigster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14899 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69897 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
