A majority of my FLAC music files have embedded CUE text files within them, as well as external CUE files. I like to rip an entire album to preserve gaps and use the CUE sheets to play individual songs. This is supported in Foobar2000 and many other music players. Can we get that added to Plex…

I’m sorry, but this specific thing is not a priority, too many other things to look at, and it’s tricky to support many-tracks-inside-a-file. Is there any real reason not to split the FLAC into gapless 1:1 files:tracks?

Is there any real reason not to split the FLAC into gapless 1:1 files:tracks? For me the big reason is I have a large library. Split is a lot of effort and have to be done on a desktop computer. It’s also quite tricky to get the metadata correctly copied from cue files into the standalone tracks. …

[image] Yohoo: But plex already supports multiple episodes in one file for videos, isn’t it? Not really. If you named the file correctly they will display the individual episodes in the show’s listings, but it does not track the episodes individually, and cannot start playback of a specific e…

How is this still not implemented? Free music players from the early 2000’s have this feature and this is a paid service… lol.

I spent 3 seconds in chatGPT, and got this. It’s specific to Linux, but asking it for a Windows, or Mac option would be just as easy. Hope this helps. Me: There’s a bunch of plex users that have their flac music libraries in the not split into individual tracks sort of way. Can you write a script f…

I don’t really understand what chatGPT proposes to split files but it’s a job I already did 10 years ago with XRECODE https://xrecode.com/ and it did it very well.
