Title: Cannot convert DSD files to FLAC
Post by: Brana G on March 30, 2014, 03:02:44 pm

When I select the files, destination and convert options all I get are a bunch of temporary files in the destination folder. Has anyone else had luck doing this?

It should be possible.  Make sure you have the latest build.  It's 19.0.124, available from the top of the MC19 board.

It does not work even with the latest build. Just to add some more detail. my DSD rips are in 5.6 MHz. When I try to convert to FLAC, the whole process takes under 1s and the folder is filled with "temporary convert files" that read 0 Kb in size. What am I doing wrong? Just for fun I selected mp3 to convert to and that works. Looks like there is an issue.

Try to go to uncompressed wave first.

I'm not sure what is causing your problem, but DSD to FLAC conversion is working correctly for me, whether I use a DFF, DSF, or SACD file.

Disk space?

Not disc space. I have a new 1.5Tb external I'm trying to place the converted files onto and it is 80% empty. Funny thing is it works going from dsd to mp3. Just not the one I want!

Are you using default encoder settings?
