Description R.Smith 2008-04-02 20:07:27 UTC
I've been attempting to directly encode my flac library to ogg. Oggenc will successfully encode the first set of flacs (in this case, "A Rush of Blood to the Head" by Coldplay) but then will suddenly, and bizarrely, decide that flacs are an unacceptable filetype for subsequent albums (several Pink Floyd albums), or even single files, that I try. I haven't been able to determine exactly why, though.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Encode an album from flac to ogg.
2. Repeat step 1 for another album or a single flac file.
3. 

Actual Results:  
The second encoding fails with the message:

ERROR: Input file "01. One Of These Days.flac" is not a supported format
ERROR: Input file "02. A Pillow Of Winds.flac" is not a supported format
ERROR: Input file "03. Fearless.flac" is not a supported format
ERROR: Input file "04. San Tropez.flac" is not a supported format
ERROR: Input file "05. Seamus.flac" is not a supported format
ERROR: Input file "06. Echoes.flac" is not a supported format

Expected Results:  
Successful encode of the second album.

About the software:
All of the albums were recently ripped using cdparanoia-3.10_pre0-r1 with no rip errors at all, and encoded with flac-1.2.1-r2. I am attempting to encode to ogg using vorbis-tools-1.2.0 via gnome-terminal.

About the flacs:
All of the flac files I have attempted to convert to ogg successfully pass the "flac -t" test. They follow the naming structure of "01. track name.flac" and all are tagged with IDv3 tags using EasyTAG.

Comment 2 R.Smith 2008-04-06 09:53:05 UTC
After some tinkering, I've discovered the problem lies with EasyTag's tagging. If I decode the flacs and re-encode the wavs again without tagging, oggenc will encode from them fine. Ditto if I do the same but tag with metaflac, too.

I haven't figured out why oggenc will encode some flacs tagged with EasyTag but not others, though.

Is this same as https://trac.xiph.org/ticket/1316 ?
Comment 4 Peter Alfredsen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-11-12 21:54:11 UTC
Is this reproducable with 1.2.0-r2? Re-open if it is.
