Range Check Error - Trader's Little Helper
« on: August 26, 2011, 02:16:28 PM »

I just started getting "range check errors" in Trader's Little Helper today when trying to encode a 24/48 wav file to FLAC.  The wav file is 2.25 GB in size.  Would the size of the wav file have anything to do with this error?  I am sure that I have encoded wav files this size to FLAC in the past.  Could the name of the file be the culprit?  The file is named C4_2011-08-24_raw  Any suggestions? 

I was using an older version of TLH and then upgraded to the newest version today.  I received the same error message using both versions.  THe wav encodes to 100% but does not complete, then the error message occurs.

Thanks

Did you ever find out what caused this?  I am trying to FLAC a bunch of my friends masters as he put them Dropbox all in WAV format.  If I drag 5 or 6 at a time I get this error about 30 times and the program crashes.  Once in a while it will actually finish a file with validity.

Doesn't this happen with WAVs > 2gb?

I'm unsure if it is puking on the larger of the files or not but there is about 50 shows in the first folder with 12 of them being >2GB.  There are also some excessively long file names (with some spaces)

I found that .wav's > 2gb caused the error.  Reduce the wav to < 2gb and I no longer got the error. 

This just happened to me again about 2 months ago.  I split the > 2gb wav file to produce a file < 2gb and the error disappeared.  I posed the same scenario at the Trader's Den several years ago and the creator of TLH said that I should NOT get the error but I continued to receive the error for wav files > 2gb...

This is what I am trying now.  All files <2GB in TLH and then I will test Foobar's conversion for >2GB.  If the latter doesn't work then I will try CDWave.  Then, as a last resort I will split them up and FLAC parts of the files. 

I believe that these are gigantic because they are all raw master DAT transfers, or more realistically, multiple masters pasted together from several bands that all played the same bill as you can see from the sample name above.

To avoid this issue with TLH, I just use the latest version of FLAC Frontend and it FLACs them everytime :)

Sometimes when I have WAVs that are almost 4gb big[24/96 at ALMOST 2 hours], I get a WAV around 3.5+gb! Well, TLH ALWAYS chokes on them for some reason, but Ive ALWAYS had success with Flac Frontend! And even if you have WAVs OVER 4gb, there's an option to FLAC that as well! I ALWAYS save a RAW/MASTER WAV file, and then FLAC it so I can easily burn to a DVDR!

So if you have the ability to use Flac Frontend, Id give it a shot! Ive been using FF for well over a decade and its always been the most reliable FLAC'ing program for ME! I do use TLH for EVERYTHING else, but for FLAC'ing my 24/96 masters, I always use FF by default! As always, YMMV ;)

I did not realize that FLAC frontend had been updated to work on OSs newer than XP. TLH is just a frontend for FLAC also. It sounds to me more of an issue with having a current version of FLAC to work with, than an application that uses it. In other words, install a current version of FLAC and point whatever program you prefer to that.

Here was the working solution: Load wav file in CD Wave and save it as FLAC.  All >2GB files verify fine now.

TLH puked and gave me bad stream headers and foobar gave me bad files.

I downloaded version 1.3.1 of FLAC.  How do I "point" TLH to that version of FLAC?

Copy the flac.exe to the CmdlineApps directory for TLH. I think the default location is:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Trader's Little Helper\CmdlineApps

Thank you from me too.  I forgot that I had to do this after every clean install of my OS.  It is on my radar now.
