Full Version: WAVE to FLAC
Hydrogenaudio Forums > Lossless Audio Compression > FLAC

I need a little help here. I have done hours of searching and reading and I am not finding what I need to know. I have about 300 cd’s worth of wave files that I ripped with EAC over a year ago. They were also WavTaged for use with my AudioTron. At the same time I also encoded them to a separate mp3 folder for my iPod, used mostly in my car. Well I recently installed a high-end stereo in my car and the mp3’s just don’t cut it compared to cd’s. And I am now interested in converting to FLAC. PhatNoise is supposedly coming out with a 120gb cartridge in the next several months for their car player and this would more than handle my music collection if it was stored in flac files. I am also looking at the Skipjam media player to play the flac files through my home stereo. Both of these units only support id3 tags, not native flac tags.

So, what I am wanting to do is to convert all of my wave files to flac and using the file/folder hierarchy of the wave files automatically create id3 tags for the flac files. (Or maybe this could be done from the WavTag files.) And of course it needs to be reasonably simple.

I have downloaded Foobar 2000, having read that that might be the way to go. It is definitely less than intuitive.

So what I am hoping for is a bit of wise advice or perhaps some links to where I might find some tutorials directed to my particular situation. Is Foobar the right app for what I am doing? Or should I be looking at something else?

Thanks,

John
