Sorry for the late response I apparently didn't get Launchpad
notification.
First, you need to install the flac package :
sudo apt-get install flac
(or use Synaptic)
Second, the script doesn't work for me anymore, and I don't know why it
worked once but doesn't anymore, except maybe that some packages have
been updated on the system. So use these 2 commands instead (but it's
going to take a long time, since it will redo it even for files that
already had a SEEKTABLE :
find . -name *flac -exec metaflac --remove --block-type=SEEKTABLE {} \;
find . -name *flac -exec metaflac --add-seekpoint=10s {} \;
4 files out of several thousand gave me some errors, but the rest was
ok.

It's still a problem in amarok 2.0 (and 2.1). I just reencode all my flac files that don't have seek information with flac filename.flac -S 1s -o new_filename.flac - to fix this.

Sorry for the late response I apparently didn't get Launchpad
notification.
First, you need to install the flac package :
sudo apt-get install flac
(or use Synaptic)
Second, the script doesn't work for me anymore, and I don't know why it
worked once but doesn't anymore, except maybe that some packages have
been updated on the system. So use these 2 commands instead (but it's
going to take a long time, since it will redo it even for files that
already had a SEEKTABLE :
find . -name *flac -exec metaflac --remove --block-type=SEEKTABLE {} \;
find . -name *flac -exec metaflac --add-seekpoint=10s {} \;
4 files out of several thousand gave me some errors, but the rest was
ok.

[Bug 162470] Re: Amarok can't fast-forward FLAC files.
How does a manual workaround fix this bug? Unless somebody is subscribed to this thread or hunts around the KDE forums, they won't know about it. Chances are that even if they do, they won't wanna go through the steps to wipe their seek tables and create new ones. I don't think this should be marked invalid as it is an actual reproducible bug. If nobody is gonna fix Amarok/Xine to work on FLAC files without seek tables, at least add the functionality to create seek tables. ** Changed in: amarok (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => Confirmed -- Amarok can't fast-forward FLAC files. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/162470 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It's still a problem in amarok 2.0 (and 2.1). I just reencode all my flac files that don't have seek information with flac filename.flac -S 1s -o new_filename.flac - to fix this.

[Bug 162470] Re: Amarok can't fast-forward FLAC files.
This is still an issue on 8.10. Does anyone more knowledgeable about Amarok know whether this can be addressed by just updating a xine dependency? The current status quo is not a great user experience. Traffic on xine-devel (http://www.nabble.com/Seeking-in-FLAC- files.-td1892865.html) suggests the xine devs feel the FLAC files themselves are malformed. Unfortunately, they do not care to answer why other players can seek inside them just fine. I can however confirm that Amarok seeks properly on FLACs once the metaflac workaround described above is used to remove and replace seekpoints. Either FLACs are not generated properly by default in any ripper we ship, or xine has a bug related to FLAC seeking. We should fix one or the other... -- Amarok can't fast-forward FLAC files. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/162470 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to amarok in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

This doesn't seem to be a problem in amarok 2.0 and songbird.

Fired up xine-ui and the problem appears to be with xine itself; xine-ui couldn't handle the flac files either.

It seems that when I fast forward a FLAC audio file, it will pause, then start over at the beginning. This actually happens on any program that will play a FLAC file.
