Hi,

I have a little suggestion related to audio file loading using cuesheet.
Would it be possible that cplay be modified in the following way:
- If cue file mention FILE "foo.wav" WAVE
-- try to load foo.wav from current directory and if it fails fallback to the loading of foo.flac and if it fail display an error.

This could be usefull for people using flac as modification of cue files generated from EAC or other software would be necessary anymore.

If you don't have time for this, I would be interested in sending you a patch for that feature if you can send me the source code to pbmtp AT free DOT fr

Thanks for this software

  What will be most useful is a playlist tool. I'd like to remove the "File Browse" button and replace it with a more general playlist tool button. Alan has built a standalone cue sheet creator / playlist tool in Java.
  
  Idea is when you hit this button, an elegant playlist tool takes the place of the old file browser. One can either select a file / track or build a new playlist and send it to cPlay for playback.
  
  This will need to be built in c/c++ using either WTL 8 or native WIN32 api (preferred). Also, avoid a resource editor.

    I ripped the whole cd into one large image FLAC file + a CUE file using EAC. With the cplay "File Browser", I just load the CUE file and play the music. That works very well with the existing cplay file browser.
    
    If we move to "playlist tool" instead of file browser, is it possible to create play list selected tracks from these CD images base on the information of image CUE file? That would be ideal. I don't want to rip all music again into "one file per track".

      YES,
      
      You CAN create a cue sheet playlist. Alan Jordan who posts on the computer asylum created such a program. I am pressed for time, but doa search for somthing like "cue sheet playlist creator" or "recursive" and look for posts from his moniker "aljordan".
      
      It is a fantastic program.

  using cuesheets? Playing the WAV file, playing the FLAC file or displaying an error.

    Rip one of your cd with EAC in flac mode, ask EAC to create a .cue file.
    
    Once it is done load the cue file with cplay and you will get an error as inside cue files have .wav extension whereas on disk they have .flac extension.
    
    To fix you need to open the cue file with a text editor and replace all occurence to .wav with .flac.
    
    My idea of trying to load .wav file and if it fails trying to load .flac file would fix such issue without the need of editing all of your .cue file

    • Rather fix cue sheet error (duplicate file suffix) caused by EAC / FLAC. nt - cics 10:54:05 06/30/09 (0)
