FLAC conversion with foobar

I have a single file FLAC with cue. I usually split into tracks using Foobar (I do it because my Logitech Transporter does not recognize the cue and treats an album as a single track).

This time I got following message:

"An error occurred while finalizing the encoding process (Unsupported format or corrupted file)"

In fact all tracks have been split successfully.

I did not find any audible problem when listening the single file.

Why would Foobar send me this message?

I've seen this message on Hydrogen Audio forum, the problem with that person was also that the tags weren't written to the separate tracks even though they were split correctly.

The solution there was:

quote:

I tried to open the flac-file and NOT the cue-file in fb2k: Now it works really fine.
All single tracks are (nearly) correct converted - all tag informations are ok.

Before, I opened the *.cue-files with fb2k

So, have the image-flac file and the cue-file in the same directory, open the flac-file in foobar (and not the cue-file) and then split in foobar using "Right-click -> "Convert" -> "…"".

Or use "CueTools 2.0.9" and have your image-file and split tracks checked against the AccurateRip database and have them split and/or converted to a number of possible codecs.
