As JJZolx points out, part of the beauty of FLAC is a built in checksum so you can verify the integrity of the file without having to carry along a separate file. As I recall, it is an md5 checksum.
I embarked on a similar project as yours a couple of years ago and put together a perl script to run flac -t (test) on all of my FLAC files. It created a log file of the files it has checked and which ones have failed. Some lines are commented out that you can put back in that will show more of what it is doing. It isn't the prettiest code, but what perl code is pretty? :-) Execute it from the top level of your flac file collection hierarchy and let 'er rip! I'll post the actual code shortly... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ maggior's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97923 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
