[Flac] Re: Illiminable DS filters for FLAC don't work

[ChristianHJW]

Try this one here instead :

http://packs.matroska.org . Get the full pack, it also contains CoreFLAC 
DirectShow filter. Alternatively, CoreFLAC alone should be found here 
http://corecodec.org/projects/coreflac ( haven't checked for a while 
though ), there should also be a DShow encoder coming with it, as well 
as an ACM plugin for Video for Windows based programs like Virtualdub ( 
decoder only, as ACM is only CBR ).
