Topic: FLAC Tags

[barren4]

I'm using FLAC frontend.  I fill out the "Tag Conf." form and encode.  No problems.  When Flac frontend is done I get a message (in the dos screen) listing all my tag info and the bottom line says "FLAC tag written."
OK, here's the question.  When I decode, no problems with the .wav (that's the important thing), but the tag info doesn't show up in the dos screen and I havn't been able to figure out how to access it.  Any suggestions?

what is the tag config for? i have never heard of anyone using it.

are you trying to create a fingerprint?

   This isn't the best but it gives a basic description:

my buddy that showed me how to use flac frontend awhile ago said that the tag config doesnt do anything, you want to add the flac files after encoding into frontend and then fingerprint them, i think thats what your looking for

Thanks cpclark, that would explain why the tag info doesn't  come available on decoding.

it adds ID3 tags, like MP3s. i'm not sure if the winamp plugin reads them or not, but i know it's key in devices like the music keg. maybe jon rabhan can add info on that, he has a keg....
