Installed the latest version of EAC and FLAC to get ready for Squeezebox.

Spend hours last night trying to figgure out why FLAC would stall with no results and no wave file deletion. Here's the Command Line that I used which would not work:

-8 -V -T "artist=%a" -T "title=%t" -T "album=%g" -T "date=%y" - T "tracknumber=%n" -T "genre=%m" %s (Typed and wouldn't work)

The above was typed and as a test, and after hours of trying various things, I finally cut and pasted from the Quick Start Manual the one below.

-8 -V -T "artist=%a" -T "title=%t" -T "album=%g" -T "date=%y" -T "tracknumber=%n" -T "genre=%m" %s (Does work!)

The difference is the space between the "-" and "T" in tracknumber!

I'm embarrassed but I hope this helps someone else who can't proof read any better than I do. Apparently FLAC is hper about such things.

nothing to do with being hyper. a single dash is just a totally different meaning. it's got something to do with stdin/stdout which flac is probably using but not getting anything on. since there are options following the single dash, the command line is an error at best or the behaviour is undefined at worst.

just to clear this up.
