Guest SecondaryCell Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 I use MacFlac (it's freeware): http://mac.softpedia.com/get/Audio/MacFLAC.shtml "MacFLAC 2.1.2 - GUI frontend app that is used to encode, decode, and generate fingerprints for FLAC" It works perfectly for me to encode and decode FLAC files to and from other formats. I've used it under both Panther and Tiger without any problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CATS Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 dbpoweramp is a great program for what i understand, just keep in mind that once you convert from flac to mp3, you're losing quality that you wont get back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o00o Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 i use cogx to play flac and ape on os x and xACT to encode, decode, tag them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyrex Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Max on OS X also works well as a multi-format encoder/transcoder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kenneth172 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 u can convert these flacs in wave or mp3 or wma... :angry: Doesn't that defeat the object of the audio being 'lossless' though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reed da rulessshhhhh. Gah, there was me thinking an entire thread from a "new" person could happen without this phrase being mentioned. Why not point this out when people actually break the rules and not when they have just signed up and are displaying some common courtesty to the board? Just a thought.
