EAC - Error in CUE sheet

Hi guys, can you please tell me what is wrong with my cue file? EAC doesn't want to split my WAV file into songs.
Thank you :)

Remove the ISRC lines.
The tool is simple and probably doesn't recognize the command.

I'm not getting an error with this one (using dummy a wav file).
Make sure the WAV filename matches the one in the CUE. The tool will throw the "Error in CUE sheet!" if they aren't the same.

Hi! To begin with my English is not on a proper level and I am really a original noob. This is my first post and i have been searching for solution but cant understand now what is wrong. If i change ".wav" to "flac" - the cuefile seems to work at least in foobar. Find it very time consuming to manually need to change cuesheet. Want to rip around 300 CDs and do it properly from the start. Using EAC 1.0.6 from October, 2020. Directory "C:\EAC"

Workflow:
1. Detect Gaps
2: Create Cue Sheet / Multiply WAV Files With Gaps... (Noncompliant)
3. Test and Copy Selected Tracks, Compressed

Encoder Flac 1.3.4.
Additional commandline: -8 -V -T "ARTIST=%artist%" -T "TITLE=%title%" -T "ALBUM=%albumtitle%" -T "DATE=%year%" -T "TRACKNUMBER=%tracknr%" -T "GENRE=%genre%" -T "PERFORMER=%albuminterpret%" -T "ALBUMARTIST=%albumartist%" -T "DISCNUMBER=%cdnumber%" -T "TOTALDISCS=%totalcds%" -T "TOTALTRACKS=%numtracks%" -T "COMMENT=%comment%" %source% -o %dest%

Hi reink, what is the actual question?

Why do you want to play the FLAC files using a cue sheet?
The non-compliant cue sheet you're creating is really only of use if you decide to use EAC to recreate the CD exactly; that is, to burn the audio back to a CD in a way that if you re-ripped it with EAC it would (should) produce the same rip results (AccurateRip, CRCs etc).

By the way: if you want to quickly change all .wav to .flac then do so in Notepad++* > Replace All .wav with .flac

* or Notepad.

Ahaaa, now I get it. The reason was that I wanted to be able convert later with foobar too 160k qaac for portable use. Then use EQ, resampling etc, experiment a little. Will install the Notepad++ - had completely forgot about it.

Thank you, Jaybee!

After a very brief look over I don't see anything that stands out as problematic.

Check the filename and perhaps try renaming the file and editing the cue to match.

@TTDaddy what prog/app are you trying to play this cue sheet with? Is there an error and if so what does it say?

Try opening the .cue in Notepad++ to see if there are any strange characters in it that haven't been copied across when you posted in this thread. And also try what korth said.
