Yes, I don't think anyone would want their metadata corrupted. The discussion here is about whether the flac command-line program should be able to store WAV or AIFF specific metadata (the so-called foreign metadata, foreign because it isn't metadata in one of FLACs own formats) that is already corrupted in some way. However, I think your use case is best served through using Vorbis comments (which is quite similar to ID3v2 tags) or an Application metadata block. The latter can store binary data, which means there's no need to base64 code anything, but it would take a little more effort to use that. _______________________________________________ flac-dev mailing list flac-dev@xiph.org http://lists.xiph.org/mailman/listinfo/flac-dev
