sorry kmitch, but there's a problem with 1.2.1 on 24 bits files. Could it be possible to encore everything but 24 bits with 1.2.1, and stay with 1.2.0 for 24 bits files ?
Regards

Is the problem only with one of the functions? Just Decoding, Encoding, Testing? Is Metaflac.exe affected, or just flac.exe?

Depending on what it impacts, I may be able to add some logic around an alternate FLAC program. I'd aso need a sample file to play with.

I would really like to take the discussion here:

Sorry guys for the delay, I'm just back home. Encoding problem, then decoding problem too (when I've encoded a flac with 1.2.1 or reflac and old flac).
So @this time (I didn't have time to try your reflacer yet, but with synthetic sounds' script; I have to use 2 scripts, one using 1.2.1 for everything except the 24bits, and another script using 1.2.0 for 24 bits files.) I told that in the flac-113 forum. Regards

but with id3v2 that could be a lot and you can't really know how long except with multiple reads, so I punt in this case.

there are three possible fixes, but all seem like more than acceptable than to just reject invalid files:

1) add another option like --force-flac-format
2) split the filetype detection code to work for seekable input, then the bug will only be with pipes
3) make the detection code more complicated to buffer the whole id3 tag

Josh,

Have you given any recent thought to the --force-flac-option? I think this would be a welcome option for anyone trancoding what they know for certain are flac files.

Thanks.
