Yeah… mp3 support. This is strictly a convenience thing as suggested by WGH on AudioCircle.com. It does not decode the mp3 files to wav, it simply copies them and adds them to the play list. I did experiment with converting to wav and perhaps they sound a little better but the standard version of SoX does not contain the needed library to decode them due to licensing restrictions. While I did try adding the needed libmad library and it worked, I thought this too much of a pain for a non techno user.

This code may have added new bugs but it seems stable. I’ve been using it all day at work with no issues. If you find a problem please report it.

FWLSetup_v1.2b2

I’ve made some updates to the FWL program to allow copying or upsampling of .wav files. Prior to this release the program would only accept files with a .flac extension. Since I have a few things that were ripped as wave files it seemed the little program should know how to digest these as well.

The new behavior is as follows:

If the selected files have a .wav extension and either SoX is not configured or if the sample rate is set to “Don’t Resample”; the files will simply be copied. If SoX is configured and the sample rate is other than Don’t Resample, the files will undergo SRC per the chosen values.

I’ve tested all the new bits and believe I’ve quashed the bugs but as usual, please let me know about any errors that you find. Issue Tracker URL: https://bitbucket.org/mgalusha/flacwavloader/issues?status=new&status=open
