foobar2000 is an excellent program that can convert from about any format to any format, including FLAC to FLAC. You may need to install it, then also find the flac.exe on the net and place this in the same directory as foobar2000. load up your files, right click, choose convert, choose output format. If FLAC says NA it is because FLAC.exe is not found..... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=95500 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
