Full Version: Problems with compression waw to flac with eac
Hydrogenaudio Forums > Lossless Audio Compression > FLAC
pzac
I'm using eac 0.99 pb4 for copy image compressed (with flac) and create cue sheet.

A the end of the procedure, I move the flac & cue file to the media library of foobar and I rescan it.

The new album appear in the "album list" of foobar listed twice:
1 - with the original number of tracks;
2 - with one track which contain all the tracks of the album.

An example:
the original CD "CDA" contains 15 tracks. After compression the cue file contains the 15 tracks.
I open the file with foobar and the album list shows:
- CDA (15) (if you expand, you get the list of the single tracks)
- CDA (1) (if you expand, you get one track)

I noticed that this last one plays all the tracks of the original CD.

Is that normal? What I’m doing wrong?

The second problem is the time that occurs for compressing a CD: the average is 35-40 minutes.

I report some of most significant setting of eac:
- extraction and compression priority Normal
- error recovery quality high
- extraction method
- secure
- drive has accurate stream feature
- drive caches audio data
- use accurate rip with this drive

I inform that i'm a beginner and also keep patient with my english

thanks in advance

(1) Foobar recognizes the FLAC and also recognizes the cue sheet that lists the different tracks. Thus, the same music appears twice, one as a single track, then as individual tracks. This is a little issue of Foobar.

(2) Ripping and compression taking 35 minutes: that is rather slow but not impossible: it depends on your drives features, but also on the quality of the CD.

(1) I've compressed 6 cd: the first I made is ok. The other ones have one more track.

Thanks anyway
