EAC and flac Options

[tidende]

Hi,

I have tried ripping and compressing CD's with EAC 1.0 beta 3 and have them compressed to flac. Unfortunately, I only get the wav-file, the cue-sheet and the txt-file. There does not seem to be anything wrong with the additional command line options: -8 -V -T "ARTIST=%artist%" -T "TITLE=%title%" -T "ALBUM=%albumtitle%" -T "DATE=%year%" -T "TRACKNUMBER=%tracknr%" -T "GENRE=%genre%" -T "COMMENT=%comment%" -T "BAND=%albuminterpret%" -T "ALBUMARTIST=%albuminterpret%" -T "COMPOSER=%composer%" %haslyrics%--tag-from-file=LYRICS="%lyricsfile%"%haslyrics% -T "DISCNUMBER=%cdnumber%" -T "TOTALDISCS=%totalcds%" -T "TOTALTRACKS=%numtracks%" %hascover%--picture="%coverfile%"%hascover% %source% -o %dest%. At least I am not warned of any errors when I test the encoder.

Thanks a lot

On the same tab where you set commandline options is your "Program, including path, used for compression" pointing to a valid copy of FLAC.EXE?

Also, be sure you are selecting the correct ripping option: Action > Copy Image & Create Cue Sheet > Compressed

The EAC tester won't test the lyrics or album art options, as those always evaluate to false during the test. Your Lyrics and Album Art tags both have quotation marks in the wrong places, which is what's causing the problem.

You also have the same problems I did initially with a couple of the option tags - %composer% should be %albumcomposer%, and you're using %albuminterpret% twice (one of them should be %albumartist% instead). Finally, the -o %dest% is unnecessary.

The correct commandline would (I think) be:
-8 -V -T "ARTIST=%artist%" -T "TITLE=%title%" -T "ALBUM=%albumtitle%" -T "DATE=%year%" -T "TRACKNUMBER=%tracknr%" -T "GENRE=%genre%" -T "COMMENT=%comment%" -T "BAND=%albuminterpret%" -T "ALBUMARTIST=%albumartist%" -T "COMPOSER=%albumcomposer%" %haslyrics%--tag-from-file="LYRICS=%lyricsfile%"%haslyrics% -T "DISCNUMBER=%cdnumber%" -T "TOTALDISCS=%totalcds%" -T "TOTALTRACKS=%numtracks%" %hascover%--"PICTURE=%coverfile%"%hascover% %source%
