I've ripped a lot of CDs, using EAC, into FLAC images with CUE sheets. 
I now realise that slimserver should still work properly if the CUE
sheet is embedded into the FLAC image, and this seems like a neater
solution.  I've therefore been trying to retrospectively embed my
existing CUE sheets into the FLAC images.

I've been using METAFLAC, but with only partial success.

- The command METAFLAC --import-cuesheet-from="test.cue" test.flac
seems to correctly add the seekpoints, so that FOOBAR recognises that
the file contains several tracks.  However, none of the track tags are
imported.  This is confirmed by using METAFLAC to export the CUE
sheet.
- The command METAFLAC --import-tags-from="test.cue" test.flac fails
because the EAC CUE sheet doesn't have lines of the form NAME=VALUE,
and I get the error 'malformed vorbis comment field'.

So can someone point out what I'm doing wrong?  I'd like to include all
the information that is currently in my EAC CUE sheets (basically Title,
Performer, Genre, Date and DISCID for the album, and Title and Performer
for each track) into the FLAC file, in a form that slimserver will like,
so that I can delete the CUE sheet and not lose anything.

Sorry if this is already covered somewhere - I've been searching for
ages and haven't got anywhere.

Thanks
