You should decode the flac to a wav file first and change in the cue-sheet from flac to wav on the file name, then it should burn perfectly Martin -- gentoo-amd64@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

When you choose 'Burn Audio CD' then any supported files that are drag and dropped into the tracklist are automatically converted to wavs, which in turn are burned in redbook format for audio CDs. When burning as data, no such conversion is performed, the flacs are burned as flacs, and you must mount the cd to get at them. -d -- darren kirby :: Part of the problem since 1976 :: http://badcomputer.org "...the number of UNIX installations has grown to 10, with more expected..." - Dennis Ritchie and Ken Thompson, June 1972 -- gentoo-amd64@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

You're right about the CUE file, though, I don't think k3b will do anything with it. I just create an audio CD and drop the flac files in - never had a problem. If you want CD Text and stuff, it will try to pick it up from CDDB (if you have that enabled), or you have to type it in yourself. ...

Perhaps I'm just demonstrating ignorance here, but flac isn't an image format - it is a sound recording format. If you wanted to burn a flac to a CD you'd need to create an audio CD and turn the flac file into a track. I don't know that you could do anything with a cue file. If you're trying to burn the image using the burn-image menu option I don't think that would work.

It could be the CUE > files aren't right, but I'm not sure how I would verify that. CUE is in a seperate file? Perhaps you need to use 'metaflac' to embed them in the flac before k3b will take them... $ metaflac --import-cuesheet-from='CUEFILE' foobar.flac In any event, running 'metaflac --list foo.flac' should let you know if the flac is valid. -d -- darren kirby :: Part of the problem since 1976 :: http://badcomputer.org "...the number of UNIX installations has grown to 10, with more expected..." - Dennis Ritchie and Ken Thompson, June 1972 -- gentoo-amd64@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
