Topic: Flac Fingerprint Help

[thegreatgumbino]

Need some help creating Flac fingerprints here.  I am a noob a this, so take it easy on me please. 

I had some old MD's transferred, and got them back as one large .flac file.  Can I open the .flac file in CD Wave Editor to do tracking, or do I have to use Frontend to decode them back to .wav?  I have tried both and saved them as .flac files using the '8' compression.  Then when I open Frontend and try to fingerprint them, I get a "bad command or file name" error and no finger print.  Any ideas?

1- Decode FLAC with Frontend to large WAV.
2- track with CDWave.
3- Recode with FLAC with Frontend (if error, try reinstall frontend, or level other than
4- Fingerprint with FLAC Frontend (if error, try reinstall frontend, or level other than

Yeah, I have that part down, Bean.  But, still not working for me. 

I tried uninstalling/reinstalling Frontend.  Tried taking master .flac and converting to .wav with Frontend, then tracking and saving to multiple .wavs out of CD Wave.  Then encoded to .flac with Frontend, and tried to fingerprint the .flacs.  Still no luck!
