Title: Flac decoding problems
Post by: jmerin on March 28, 2005, 11:23:21 AM

So I wanted to burn a show that I taped, and when i decoded the flac files, i got errors on 2 tracks.  Does anyone know how that is possible.  So I went on LMA and downloaded the show and all of the files were fine. 

thanks

the copy you burned was corrupted.  always test the files after burning before deleting the files.

test them before doing anything, including burning

a bad burn.  I take it you uploaded from your hardrive then burned a flac copy.

I upldaed to LMA, then put the show on my external hard drive.  so all i did was copy and paste

could have been a bad transfer from the external drive

thats probably what it was.  i was thinking that the flac files just went bad over time

thanks

must have been in the copy process.  I test the files EVERY time I move them anywhere etc.
