Flac info please!

[clearlyentranced]

OK I know that there's an old thread on this but it won't come up on the search list. I just downloaded a flac show, and I don't have a program..I just downloaded flac frontend, and I don't know what buttons to press, someone please help.

Get winamp

That didn't help..

I generally start flac front-end, then drag and drop the flac files into the program. I highlight all the flac files, and choose "decode". This decodes all the files to .wav, which I burn from there.

Hope that helps

if you have nero burning software there is no need to decode
you can burn in flac format after downloading the flac plugin for nero also
get the plugin for winamp you can listen to it without decoding

later

I use dBpowerAmp v11 with FLAC codec.
Works like a charm.

The newer version 11.5 looks like it is only a 30day trial. not sure of the limitations. might not be anything important.

You've got me there...Perhaps try reinstalling flac frontend? Also, just remembered another program I use for encoding/decoding...Give Easy CD-DA Extractor a try. I use it mainly to rip CDs, but it also decodes flac, and about 8 other file formats. It's a great little program.

I think I had the outdated flac frontend, I just downloaded the newer one and it works great
