Reflacer, VBScript to re-flac, decode, encode, and re-encode to MP3 Options

[kmitch]

Based on configuration file or command line parameters, offers the following functionality:

• Encode - The program looks for .WAV files and will encode them using .FLAC
• Decode - The program looks for .FLAC files and will decode them to .WAV
• MP3 - The program looks for .FLAC files, intermediately decodes them to .WAV, then uses lame to encode the .WAV to .MP3 and removes the .WAV file
• ReFLAC - The program looks for .FLAC files and re-encodes them to .FLAC
• Test - The program looks for .FLAC and tests the files for validity

Taking the following types of input:

• Directory - Command Line Parameter DIR. If used, the program will look in this directory and all subdirectories for files and perform the Mode action on those files
• File List - Command Line Parameter FILELIST. formatted as 1 file per line with full path and filename, the program will iterate through each file and perform the mode action. File - Command Line Parameter
• FILE. It will allow the program to act on an individual file.

This program is just a wrapper around functionality available in other programs. It makes use of the following executables:

• FLAC v1.2.1 Makes use of flac.exe and metaflac.exe, these programs can be obtained from <a href="http://flac.sourceforge.net/" target="_blank">http://flac.sourceforge.net/</a> on the Download page, click on the link to download FLAC for Windows (command-line tools only).
• Tag v2.0.52 Makes use of Tag to identify and remove ID3v2 tags. This program can be obtained from <a href="http://synthetic-soul.co.uk/tag/" target="_blank">http://synthetic-soul.co.uk/tag/</a>
• Lame v3.97 LAME is an MPEG Audio Layer III (MP3) encoder licensed under the LGPL. It can be downloaded from <a href="http://lame.sourceforge.net" target="_blank">http://lame.sourceforge.net</a>
• metamp3 v.092b5 MetaMP3 is used to copy tags from FLAC files to MP3 files when in MP3 mode <a href="http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=49751" target="_blank">http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index....showtopic=49751</a>
• imgResize v1.00 This program is distributed (with source) with Reflacer. This program is a simple VB .Net application to accept an image file, and resize it.
