When I run the [Calculate Audio CRC] 'codec' from the command line using coreconverter.exe, it seems to process my audio files, but does not output any crc data.

I know the help file says this codec doesn't work from the command line, but this post (http://forum.dbpoweramp.com/showpost.php?p=48988&postcount=3) gives command line options for the [Calculate Audio CRC] codec, so I figured I'd give it a shot.

Here is the command line that I am using:

coreconverter.exe -infile="test.m4a" -outfile="c:\crc.txt" -convert_to="[Calculate Audio CRC]" -crc -md5

This command appears to process my audio file. I get a progress bar in the shell as it churns through my file for several seconds and then it states that the conversion is complete. However, no output is generated.

Any suggestions for getting this to work via the command line?

Thanks,
Jon

The CRC help file says the results are put into the clipboard, have you tried pasting into notepad? Also, the help file for the CRC codec is more updated than the link you posted, as the link is a year old and the help file is more recent.
