#159 FLAC source but file matches the plugin 'mp3 (libmad)'

[abssorb]

Hi,

Re flac functionality

Out of a set of flac files, all split successfully into smaller flacs except for two files.

In both cases, mp3splt gave:
file matches the plugin 'mp3 (libmad)'

This created a bad mp3 file. The source flac file is 278Mb so wouldn't attach.
I'll try and upload somewhere else and post again.

Is there an option which will allow me to force flac behaviour?

Thanks,
Abssorb

Thank you for reporting this issue.
I am aware about this problem as someone already reported it to me.
For the moment there is no such option.
However, you can move or rename the file libsplt_mp3* - this will allow mp3splt not to load the mp3 plugin and thus to use the FLAC one.
What operating system are you using ?

That's a workaround I can use. Thanks Alex
I'm on Ubuntu 12.10 64 bit.

If you need the file it's at:

278Mb

Please let me know when you have it, so I can take it down. My host will object if it's left there. Thanks.

I have fixed this bug in the latest development version. Please tell me if you want a snapshot.

Hi, I see 1415 as the latest?. I've already tried that set and unfortunately I got the same results.

[abssorb]

Correction. I double-checked my setup and I had dependency problems. Testing 1415 again and good results.

mp3splt produces a warning:

warning: detected as .mp3 but extension does not match
info: file matches the plugin 'flac (libflac)'

But then continues and splits the same test files which failed before. So it seems to be working.

[Munteanu Alexandru]

Cool that it works.

Fix is now bundled with mp3splt version 2.6.1.
I am closing the ticket.
Please post here if necessary.

Hello, the problem still exists in version 2.6.2 (windows 10) and cannot try the mod renaming the file "libsplt_mp3-0.dll" as I get the error "error: no plugin matches the file"
