Thank you Josh, the link clearly explains FLAC's philosophy and it souds quite logical:
"For FLAC the intention is that applications can calculate the CDDB or CDindex ID from the CUESHEET block and look it up in an online or local database just like CD rippers and players do. But if you really want it in the file itself, the track metadata should be stored separate from the CUESHEET, and already can be because of FLAC's metadata system. There just isn't a method specified yet because as soon as it is, people will say that it's not flexible enough."
About the other point :
> not sure what you mean by frame counts but the cue points can
> also be absolute sample numbers like --seekpoint=#
This is exactly what i am looking for (cuepoints specified as
absolute frame numbers) it seems you have something working,
but what's the option/syntax for this ?
As there is no --cuepoint option, i presume that absolute frame
numbers must be specified within cuesheet files instead of HH:MM:FR
as in the following extract ?
Or do i have to specify something so that FLAC creates cuepoints
from seekpoints ?
TRACK 01 AUDIO
INDEX 01 0
TRACK 02 AUDIO
INDEX 01 12345678
TRACK 03 AUDIO
INDEX 01 87654321
