John;

May be I was not as clear as I should, I mean that the /frontend /(FLAC 
frontend-NET40.exe), when clicking on the button About, displays its own 
version, 2.1, and that of the codec, and even having installed the 1.3.3 
codec from the site Martijn and you suggested, the frontend still 
informs 1.3.0.

But when the codec flac.exe is run directly from the command line in a 
cmd window (without intermediation of the frontend), the declared 
version is the correct one, 1.3.3.

Anyway, it is not so important, I just wanted to be sure.

Thanks.

Federico Miyara
