Title: How do I find which version of flac.exe EAC 1.5 uses?
Post by: box55 on 2020-11-16 01:57:53
One stupid question: I have EAC 1.5 and it contains a flac.exe. How do I know which version is the flac.exe? I rip CDs with EAC to flac directly and I wonder which version I am using to rip wav to flac using EAC while the CD is getting rip.

The -v (or --version) command-line option will return the flac version number

Or, if you use Foobar2000, the properties page for any encoded file will tell you the version used.

How does Foobar know? Is the version information present in the file?

Oh I see. So EAC 1.5 is using 1.3.2 (I did not install flac or anything, just checked the flac mark when installing eac).
