will it eventualy support flac encoding?

Question

when will or can I make it work with an external encoder to generate the FLAC format?

Answer 1

Yes. Audiograbber already supports FLAC as external encoder.

1) Just get the official FLAC for windows here (with installer or just the command line tools - you just need flac.exe):
http://flac.sourceforge.net/download.html

2) Go to "MP3 settings" (it is named "mp3", but it works for any format), "external encoder" and browse for "flac.exe".

3) Use it with the following command line:
[<general-options>] [<format-options>] [<encoding options>] %s %d

(the %s %d is the param Audiograbber uses for input and output file)
Options: http://flac.sourceforge.net/documentation_tools_flac.html

Best,
Stefan

thank you Stefan for this very professional answer...

I will try Audiograber mainly because I read somewhere that it can check if the ripped files are "equivalent to the originals".

Right now I am  having lots of intermittent clicks and pops using the latest version of the software that I currently. I realized that it scraped about 1 in 10 cds that I ripped... I have to go back to half of my CD collection !!!
