Having a notebook with not so much HD space and trying to backup as many of my cd:s as possible in one go, I wonder if there is any possibility to save the EAC ripped tracks as FLAC files?

John33: Your excellent tool OggdropXPd would in my opinion gain a lot in usability if FLAC -> Ogg Vorbis conversion possibility is included. Especially if EAC is able to save tracks to FLAC.

- Or could I be the only one not having enough of diskspace when backing up a lot of cd:s?

Cheers,

If you use speeks frontend you can give it any file you want.
Remember to have the flac decoder in the program dir then.

Are you talking about Speeks Oggifier? I can not find an option for decoding FLAC to wav and encode it to ogg vorbis.

I was more looking for a transcoding tool, like Oggdrop (or similar) being able to direct transcode FLAC to Ogg. And if that tool is libvorbis aware, that's excellent!

yeah would be a really nice feature!

OK, guys, I hear what you say. I had been thinking about that myself. Only trouble is, the next guy will want APE support, etc, etc.

Seriously, though, I will take a good look at it.

Sorry, I was thinking about MPC.

You can use Winamp, with FLAC input plugin and PP's Vorbis output plugin.

But, as usual: Turn off Equalizer and any DSP plugins before transcoding.

Yeah, it might be! I'll have a thorough look at it. Thanks.
John33: You're the guy!
Roberto: I am for sure not correct about this, but it "feels" better to have a dedicated coding program to do the job than a player. I am not sure how accurate the input/output plugins for FLAC and Vorbis are. But it's a solution.
