Hi, 

As flac is lossless the number of frame and md5 code of the track 
should be the same. 


But I did the test you propose, I extract from the 
flac the wav and I launch: 

avconv -i file.wav -acodec alac file.m4a 

and surprise ! I got an Apple lossless audio 



What I was suspecting is true  the conversion from flac to m4a using alac codec 
create an acc 128 !!!


Conclusion the command below create an acc even using codec alac I think this a 
bug.    

avconv -i file.flac -acodec alac file.m4a  

Many people using avconv or ffmpeg to create Apple lossless from flac got acc 
128 

My version is avconv 


version 0.8.1-4:0.8.1-0ubuntu1, Copyright (c) 2000-2011 the Libav developers

Better try some other reference format (pcm ideally), as flac may have
multiple representations of the same waveforms.
