I do what some of the other folks do: keep parallel directories of FLAC and MP3. To rip CDs, I use Exact Audio Copy, and for it's "compression" I use Mareo, which is really just a program that lets you run multiple compressions. In my case I configure LAME to compress to MP3 and and FLAC to compress to FLAC. So for each song ripped, I get these files:
G:\Music\FLAC\<artist>\<album>\<song>.flac G:\Music\MP3\<artist>\<album>\<song>.mp3 For playlists, so far I've been generating the playlists for FLAC and keeping them in the FLAC directory. I use a text editor if they contain absolute paths, making them relative. Then I copy them to the MP3 directory and do a global replace of ".flac" with ".mp3". The EAC/Mareo/LAME/FLAC setup is great, but I'm still trying to figure out a more convenient way to deal with the playlists: I hate having to edit, copy, and edit again. -- rhuffman ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rhuffman's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9207 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31502 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
