Was trying to compare FLAC and Apple Lossless....I have some wav files (ripped from orig. cd's) and I have encoded them to apple lossless (dbpoweramp) and everything is good (pretty comparable to FLAC...however, when I put them into itunes everything works fine but the whole root directory comes out- C:\Documents...etc... not just the track name..
Is there a way to get rid of this and just have the track name in apple lossless....In reference to mp3's, I always rip to wav (EAC), then convert my mp3's into different bitrates w/ cdex, then add them to itunes.... ----Don't want rockbox yet...have it on an Archos and it is great....for ipod will wait a bit Thanks J |

Tag the Apple Lossless files, in iTunes, with the track, artist, etc. names you want.
Or use iTunes to encode the Wave files to Apple Lossless |

Thanks kr...I think I will use the itunes to convert the wav to apple lossless....I was just so used to encoding and decoding with db.., cdex.., etc. and then transferring my files into itunes...
Is there just one default for apple lossless in itunes...? e.g.-for FLAC there are several compression settings--4 being the medium level... Again Thanks J |

Yes, Apple Lossless only have one default setting. Or at least I have never seen any compression settings in iTunes.
By the way, welcome to Hydrogenaudio!

Your wave files have no tags, so iTunes cannot display, if you rip to FLAC with tags then dbpoweramp will retain the tags on conversion.
