Flac Doesn't Let Me Embed This Cuesheet, What's wrong with it? Options

[smz]

Flac (1.1.2) doesn't let me embed the follwing cuesheet

CODE

PERFORMER "Performer Name"
TITLE "Album Title"
FILE "mytestfile.wav" WAVE
 TRACK 01 AUDIO
   TITLE "Track01 Title"
   PERFORMER "Performer Name"
   INDEX 01 00:00:00

   ...

with this error:

CODE

ERROR initializing encoder
state= FLAC_STREAM_ENCODER_INVALID_METADATA

Is this a bug or there is something wrong with my cuesheet that I can't spot?

Cheers

Sergio


Edit: spelling. If also a mod could fix the topic title... thanks! (Done, thanks to the mod!)

Edit2: removed great part of the cuesheet as the problem was not with it (see subsequent posts), to make the thread more readable.

Edit3: Modified cuesheet example so that RIAA doesn't sue me, in case I die...

Point taken.

You could ascertain whether the last index is feasible though. If the last index is smaller than the duration of the WAV then the cuesheet duration is valid.

Edit: I should reiterate that I wouldn't suggest any cuesheet checking by default.

However, if you are checking for sample/sector accuracy then it suggests that you would validate the cuesheet also. I tested this inference previously out of interest, and m0rbidini obviously assumed that it was already taking place - possibly because of the emphasis on accuracy between the WAV and cuesheet.
