Hi taper folks,
I've recently figured out how to decode flac to .wav from a DVD source. However, I would like to learn how to encode a .wav file from my CDR to a flac file and then burn that to a DVD. I'm using Roxio, Tapers Little Helper and Flac Frontend. In both software that encode and decode flac, when I try to encode the .wav files to flac the software doesn't seem to find a file or folder. I figured out that I open up the .wav files from my D drive that houses my DVD burner and then I put them into a folder anywhere but the software doesn't seem to pick it up. I've tried using a folder , not using a folder, by raw file, etc., on desktop, on hard drive, but no avail; I've got to be doing something incorrect or simply missing a step. I don't seem to have a problem taking the flac files from the DVD drive through roxio. Roxio doesn't seem to support flac , it will burn a "data disc" but it wants to utliize mp3. Also, Roxio seems to have a "custom" setting where you select mp3's and .wav files, so I hope Roxio will even burn a flac file. I would assume data is data, but you never know how the program really works. I have used it for mp3 conversion and it seemed to be fine, but I want to throw some stuff for vine at Dead.net, but don't want to take some killer stuff and compress it to mp3. I would really appreciate anybody's insight to my problem or find a step by step process with either Flac Frontend or Taper's Little Helper
many thanks y'all

Please forgive if I sound like a bonehead for not knowing, but there wasn't a manual with any of the shareware.

Just click data disc and drop or open your flacs inside.
Peace
