Federico,
Yes, you are correct. Clearly the FLAC version is hard-coded into the
frontend which is the source of your confusion. Trust what the encoder
indicates, not the frontend ;-).

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.

The frontend has no knowledge of the version being used. The command
window that pops up displays the information directly from the
encoder so, the version you have downloaded that claims to be 1.3.2
is displaying 1.3.0 when it is executed. This may simply be that the
character string in the encoder wasn't updated when the library was.
However, as Martijn indicated, if you visit
https://www.rarewares.org/lossless.php you can download 1.3.3 which
does display correctly as I have checked it myself.

So the frontend doesn't detect the version of the real codec but
remains freezed informing a built-in version number 1.3.0?

1) I'm using a portable version of frontend 2.1 for Windows, I've downloaded
version 1.3.2 of the main program, I place it in the right directory but the
front end keeps saying that the version is 1.3.0.
2) I could't find an executable version of the command line program 1.3.3. Does
it exist?
The frontend hasn´t been updated for quite some time now. The xiph
releases indeed do not have a FLAC 1.3.3 executable for Windows. If
you're looking for a recent windows compile, I´d recommend looking at
https://www.rarewares.org/lossless.php or browsing the
https://hydrogenaud.io/ forums under the FLAC section.
