Flac R11 (1.2.1)

[Spoon]

Download:

http://www.dbpoweramp.com/beta/dBpoweramp-Codec-FLAC.exe

(this update is significantly faster when encoding to network drives)

Changes:

Flac updated to 1.2.1
Description handled for Album Art
FLAC encoder can sense the expected ID Tag size and automatically sets padding (saves whole flac file being rewritten at end)
If Album Art has not changed then is not rewritten (saves the whole file being rewritten on a tag update)
Added new Padding sizes (64KB 128 KB 256KB 512KB)
Added CD TOC storage in new CD TOC tag

Bug fix: when removing 2nd album art it would not remove it
Bug Fix: When Advanced Flac Option Corrupt Flac File set to 'Continue Decoding (show error as information)' was not writing ID Tag

Re: Flac R11 (1.2.1)

Thanks for updating to Flac 1.2.1
Can you make the mapping for BPM also users choice (just like label, conductor, comment, Year, track & disc is now) ?
When I convert to Flac BPM is transferred to tempo.

Re: Flac R11 (1.2.1)

Use the DSP effect 'id tag manipulation' and set the mapping of Tempo to BPM

Re: Flac R11 (1.2.1)

Thanks for pointing me to that DSP effect, works great!

Re: Flac R11 (1.2.1)

Is this the pure 1.2.1 version or 1.2.1b?

Re: Flac R11 (1.2.1)

No difference for dBpoweramp as we do not use flac.exe

Exactly how shortly?

Re: Flac R11 (1.2.1)

Hi Spoon. I'd also like to request an addition tag mapping for FLAC: "Album Artist" to "Albumartist". The version without the space is preferred by some other programs, including Mp3Tag and Logitech's SlimServer. (I know that I can use the Tag Manipulation DSP effect to achieve this, but it would be awesome if I could just make a one-time configuration change instead.)

Also, thanks for all the work you've put into dBpoweramp! IMO, it's the best music ripper/converter in existence. Kudos!

I haven't noticed an issue with Slimserver with this, how does it manifest itself?

Re: Flac R11 (1.2.1)

Heard that FLAC v1.2.2 would see the light in about a month or so.
