Hi<br><br>I have downloaded a FLAC file somewhere and when trying to decode it to WAV it gives the error message: ERROR, MD5 signature mismatch<br>So my question is now: are FLAC files that give the error message above still decodable to WAV (and how can you do this, because
flac.exe doesn't want to decode the file), even if there is a MD5 signature mismatch, or is this not possible at all?</blockquote><div><br><br>An additional question: what happens if you re-encode a FLAC file, that gives the error message 'ERROR, MD5 signature mismatch' while trying to decode to WAV, to another FLAC file using a later version of the FLAC encoder? I tried this and it seems to work, but I'm wondering if the audio data is still the same in the new file as in the old file? Or what happens in the re-encode process when such a input FLAC file is re-encoded to another FLAC file?
<br><br>thx in advance!<br></div><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">thx<br>
