Flac files not recognised?

#1

Hi,
I am feeling stupid already, because I probably didn’t find the right help page before asking (though I DID try :wink: :

Does SongKong not handle *.flac files?

When I choose a folder with flac files in it and I hit the “Fix Songs” button, I get the message: “None of the files or folders selected contain any songs that can be read by SongKong”.
The help pages do not say anything about the (non-)supported file formats…

The flac files were created with the flac 1.2.1 commandline tool.

What am I doing wrong?

I am using the SongKong 3.24, Build 1062, Date 11/03/2016, Trial, Windows 10, 64bit.

Hi Max

Sorry, its my fault SongKong does indeed support Flac but Ive recently discovered a bug was introduced into the last release that prevents it reading Flac files containing a non-standard ID3tag, I assume your flacs have such a tag.

I have a fix for this, download

http://www.jthink.net/songkong/scratch/jaudiotagger-2.2.6-SNAPSHOT.jar

and replace jaudiotagger-2.2.6-SNAPSHOT.jar in SongKongs lib folder with this one, let me know if that doesnt work.

Thanks for the quick reply. I will have some time this evening to try it.
