Re: [Flac] FLAC: re-encoding

2007-07-26 Thread rappard

Hi all,

Josh probably means flac-113.bat which was written by someone in the  
HA forums - obviously attachments with the .bat extension are anathema  
to most mailing lists and mail servers, so I uploaded it at:


http://www.megaupload.com/?d=2MK94DMN

Let me know if the link doesn't work and I'll simply send you the source.

Cheers,

Martin

I wrote a little command line utility for this in C# - the lib it uses is a
little overkill for the task but it does work.  As Josh noted there is no
compression gain, so I wouldn't bother unless you have FLAC's encoded with
older versions.  I also think Josh said there's a .BAT file out there that
does the same thing.

Here's the file: http://idsharp.com/download/reflac02.zip

It creates backups and shows encoder/decoder windows by default, you can
turn these off with -nb (no backups) and -nw (no windows).  Have flac.exe in
the same directory as the tool and run something like:
reflac -8 -r c:\flac

Which will reflac all .flac files in c:\flac, revursively (-r), with
compression level 8 (-8).  The source is available if you're interested.

hi

I have some questions about re-encoding existing FLAC files to FLAC
1.2.0.:

- can older 1.1.x FLAC files be re-encoded to FLAC 1.2.0 by using the
FLAC 1.2.0 encoder?


yes, flac can take FLAC files as input, but there is no compression
advantage going from 1.1.4 to 1.2.0


- can FLAC files encoded with the FLAC Flake SVN encoder (or any
other
'unofficial' FLAC encoder) be re-encoded by using the FLAC 1.2.0
encoder?


yes, if they are FLAC compliant
