I was not aware this behavior was considered lossy and I didn't know that only lossless encoding and decoding was a goal. Specifically, I thought extracting only some channels from a FLAC file would be okay to expect flac to do given the other lossy encoding and decoding options already in flac such as --skip (to skip over samples) and --until (for stopping at a given sample) which each allow extracting only some samples, and --apply-replaygain-which-is-not-lossless. None of these options are marked as deprecated in the documentation and two of them aren't marked as lossy. _______________________________________________ Flac mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xiph.org/mailman/listinfo/flac
