Mac-Version of 12.4, No FLAC, no Apple lossless in CDRipper and Music-Converter

[Logos]

In CD-Ripper 17.7 and 17.8 Beta 1 I cannot rip into FLAC or Apple Lossless because these codecs are not available (in the contrary to former versions).
The codecs are not available in the music converter as well

Hi,

But i have many Questions for Apple Lossless.

I've downloaded a bunch of 78rpm rips which have been transferred at 24-bit and made available as FLAC files in lossless or mp3. Naturally I would prefer lossless, but iTunes is my preferred library, so I convert to Apple Lossless. However, the bit-depth is kept, resulting in very large file sizes:...

I tried to convert a 24bit Apple lossless file to Flac. The result is ... just digital noise.
Can dbpoweramp convert 24bit Apple lossless to Flac (24bit or 16bit) and if so, can somebody please tell me how ?

Just a minor item - but an important one: I was able to successfully convert DSF 2-channel files (from an SACD ISO) into Apple lossless in nice 24-bit/88 khz quality. I just miss the opportunity to add a gain of +3.5 db during the conversion process. Is there a function within the utility codecs which...

I'm trying to convert a .m4A file to flac so that it can play on my Sansa Clip+ (plus). I'm currently using R13.5 (so I do not have the latest version 16).

When I try to convert it directly from Apple lossless (.m4a) to flac, the file will not play on my Sansa Clip+. It just skips it....

I have just updated to 14.3 and now, when converting a set of tracks from AIFF to Apple Lossless I get an error report for about half of the tracks as follows:

I am trying out if dBpoweramp 14.2 can convert Apple Lossless/ALAC-files to FLAC. With 'normal' files (44.1khz,16bit) it seems to work all right, but 96khz,24bit files just turn into noise after their conversion to FLAC. I notice the sample size reported for the FLAC is 16-bit (96khz), and after checking...

I am trying to convert from flac to Apple Lossless but for some reason I am getting an the error "Unable to load encoder". This is the syntax I am trying. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

I'm in the process of moving my music to open source codecs and need to convert a big bunch of Apple Lossless files to FLAC. The problem is that the file extension of AA files (.M4A) isn't a good identifier since the lossy AAC codec uses the same extension (and obviously, I dont want...

I know there is a codec to install as I dd this before in the faraway past, but I searched and can't find the instructions for it.

When I try to convert a 24-bit FLAC to Apple lossless with Music Converter, I get the error message "Error Apple Lossless accepts only 16 bit, mono or...

Hello,
yesterday I downloaded dBPoweramp to convert some of my FLACs to Apple Lossless for my iPodTouch. I hoped from lossless to lossless format this is quite a quick task so I can pump up my iPod right before I enter my car.

Testing this I got quite different results. Having...

I have used Dbpoweramp 13.2 Reference to rip a few cds into the Dbpoweramp's version of Apple Lossless, but in Foobar, I have found them all to have the same error reported. Here is a sample of five tracks from separate discs:

Hi, Just joined forum and looking for some answers. Like a lot of people, I suspect, I ripped all my CDs the first time without understand implications of lossless/lossy. I've got a MAC system so I am thinking of ripping into Apple Lossless but have concerns about my future requirements. So my question,...

[ronaksf]

I am in the process of deciding which codec to use (Apple Losless or FLAC).

I notice that I can select the compression level setting for FLAC so that I can get smaller files after ripping, can the same be done anywhere for Apple Lossless?
