Title: MAC 2.92 flac problem
Post by: neuron132 on 2004-07-09 17:56:19
I'm finding that MAC 2.92 is chocking on flac files.  it just stalls triying to index a flac file.  I've tried it on a data DVD as well as off a hard disc.  The files play fine, however.

Any ideas?

FWIW, I use 2.92 to catalog my FLAC files and don't have a problem.

Works fine for me as well.  Perhaps the FLAC tag is creating the error?  Have you contacted Gambit & the developer crew.  They may be able to help.

Are you using EAC to rip?  If yes, do you have the "write ID3 tags" box checked.  I have it checked, but i remember something in MAREO that says to have it unchecked.

Not using ID3 tags. I have cuesheets embedded in the files.

I tried it without ID3 tags, and MAC still stalled..  it was a thought...

I also had problems (and reported them to the MAC crew) while reading certain flac files, but I could track done mine to files with additional ID3v2 tags. Maybe you could provide a (short, of course) flac file which causes the stalling problem?

I could try to find something less than a nimute that causes the problem, but where do I send it?  I do not have any FTP/HTTP server access.

you could email it here:
macteam@users.sourceforge.net

It is probably enough with the first 100 kb or so of a big file in case you can't find a small enough file that triggers the bug.
