I don't know of any 'how to' guide for compiling Sox with flac support, although it should be possible. Converting from flac to wav is a relatively simple command line process: flac -sd test.flac -o test.wav would work. The output could be piped. e.g.: flac -sdc test.flac|lame - test.mp3 Derek Sivers has posted some useful examples for converting between flac, wav and mp3: http://www.oreillynet.com/onlamp/blog/2004/11/convert_audio_between_mp3_flac.html TJF wrote: > Hi, > > is there any link to a "how to" integrate FLAC instead of mp3 ? > > Thanks. > > Regards > Thomas > > > > Am 11.06.2010 09:06, schrieb Mike Hirst: >> Paul, >> >> Sox must be compiled sox with lame and libmad to enable mp3 support for >> Windows.
