Is there a way to make picard write ID3-tags to FLAC-files aswell? My stupid MP3-player wont handle FLAC metadata properly. :/

you use flac on your mp3 player?

why not? :)

bit excessive if you ask me :p
2008-09-11 25538, 2008

heh, well.. it's an iAudio 7. it has 16 GBs of flash memory.
2008-09-11 25549, 2008
Wizzcat
same as me, except I have the 8GB one :(
2008-09-11 25551, 2008
peh
sound quality is awesome, but its software is slightly braindead :/
2008-09-11 25504, 2008
Wizzcat
too bad it doesn't have proper ogg support, have to transcode to crappy mp3
2008-09-11 25523, 2008
Wizzcat
rockbox is coming for it soon though, soon as it's stable I'll change to ogg -2 or something like that
2008-09-11 25525, 2008
FauxFaux runs out of space on his 20gb iRiver, at q3 ogg (circa 100kbps)
2008-09-11 25526, 2008
peh
yea, I noticed that. :/
2008-09-11 25529, 2008
Wizzcat
half the size of mp3
2008-09-11 25544, 2008
peh
well I certainly hope so. I'd like rockbox very much
2008-09-11 25557, 2008

I used it on my old x5, it's.. rocking

I'm having some transfer speed issues with my iAudio. I know there's a supposed fix for it (reformatting the drive with 16 KB cluster size), but it doesn't seem to work for me :/
2008-09-11 25514, 2008
peh
if only they could make a PMP with 300+ GB harddrive and 60+ hours runtime. *drool*
2008-09-11 25543, 2008
warp
Wizzcat: not because I need the sound quality, but I can't be bothered to transcade everything.
2008-09-11 25536, 2008

i just want reliable 3G coverage in my area, then I can just stream from home :)
2008-09-11 25549, 2008

peh: You can get 2.5" 250gb flash drives, that has to help. :)

Whip open an iRiver, plonk one in..
2008-09-11 25513, 2008
peh
heh, well.. there's still the issue of runtime :P
2008-09-11 25522, 2008
Wizzcat
warp: well if you have lots of space then sure, but for me it's probably faster to transcode+transfer than transfer a huge file
2008-09-11 25533, 2008
Wizzcat
not to mention I can fit in 10x as much music

Wait, how big is flac, 5mb/minute ish?
2008-09-11 25509, 2008
warp
FauxFaux: depends on the source
2008-09-11 25523, 2008

bit more I think

FauxFaux: I have some albums which hardly get smaller when going from .wav to .flac
2008-09-11 25528, 2008

8-900kbit?

The ish was a short version of "cd sourced audio of modern pop music". ¬_¬

Average bitrate across that NiN release is 1801kbps, but that's obviously not realistic.

Massively parallel encode of 11-track cd from wav to flac and vorbis works suprisingly well.
2008-09-11 25548, 2008
FauxFaux
948 kbps for that cd in flac. :)
2008-09-11 25511, 2008
warp wonders how to see the bitrate of a .flac file.
2008-09-11 25532, 2008
FauxFaux
Foobar knows, you could estimate it with du and the length, though.
2008-09-11 25539, 2008
FauxFaux
Unless you put 600dpi png'd cover art scans in the tags, 'cos losing information you can't see or hear is obviously not cool.

</not a flac fan>
2008-09-11 25551, 2008
Wizzcat prefers to live without transcoding noise after X generations of new audio formats
2008-09-11 25537, 2008
warp gives up and goes about fixing the music server machine.
2008-09-11 25557, 2008
FauxFaux
When I can't find a single PC player that'll play vorbis, or I can suddenly tell the difference between q7 vorbis and cd quality, I'm perfectly happy to re-rip my stuff. :)

ripping is such an ordeal for me, i definitely only want to do that once.
2008-09-11 25543, 2008
Wizzcat
not to mention that it's hard to rerip music you borrow from others/library
2008-09-11 25539, 2008
warp is currently unable to rip any new cds.

I'm adding cover ARs to a track, but it has two tracks, one is hidden after some silence. Do I just add both cover ARs to the track and hope people are smart enough to figure things out or is this impossible?
