In your terminal ( Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal) navigate into that folder (using the cd command). Suppose you have a folder which contains a Van Morrison album as a single flac (and the cue file is in there as well). It doesn’t matter in which order you run them but you will need both packages.įirst I offer a couple of examples of how the code might look. Open a terminal ( Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal) and run these two commands: The code may look complicated, but once you understand how to parse the different pieces you should have no difficulty in manipulating the code to process your files.īefore you begin with that you will want to add two utility packages which contain the tools you will need to make these splits and do the tagging of the individual files. It only requires a couple of lines of code, in fact. It’s actually pretty easy to break that large FLAC file into its component tracks and to add the appropriate tag information into those individual FLAC files. However, I find it much more palatable to have single tracks be single files.
Rhythmbox, for instance, will play these large FLAC’s just fine and it will even display the correct track information as you progress through the file.
cue file for determining the track changes. It may come to pass that you download a concert or album only to discover that the encoder has helped you out by encoding the entire thing as a single FLAC file accompanied by a.
