Funny you should mention -Abbey Road-, as this is one of the albums that I have converted to flac via EAC. I must have done something right because it plays back correctly via SB3. Proper gapping is important to me, particularly in live albums where I can't stand a slight gap -- and the resulting silence of crowd noise -- between tracks. If I am ripping and compressing correctly, as I seem to be, are you saying I want to write with no gaps to retain the proper gapping? Also, I want to keep the original file, can I specify the wav file to go to a different folder? -- Kyle ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Kyle's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2541 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=19133 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
