A couple of EAC questions
« on: 24 Feb 2010, 07:25 pm »
Hopefully someone here is familiar enough with EAC to help me with two irritating problems.  In ripping CDs to FLAC files, problem #1 is EAC numbers each track 01-T, 02-T, etc.  Problem #2 is EAC/FLAC never writes the Genre, FLAC reports it as not found.

In case it helps, my EAC file naming scheme is:  %D\%C\%N-%T

and my additional command lines for the external flac program are:
 -V -8 -T "artist=%a" -T "title=%t" -T "album=%g" -T "date=%y" -T "tracknumber=%n"-T "genre=%m" %s

I've tried just about everything I can think of without success.

Two things:
1)not sure why the -V to begin the FLAC command line
2)  there is no space in your command line after the tracknumber quote   
      tracknumber=%n"-T          try making it...
      tracknumber=%n" -T

Thanks a lot, that did the trick.  Putting in an extra space gets the genre tagged as well.
