    Hello Boardsies
    I have downloaded an album in FLAC format, however the album is all in one file. I'm seeing a lot of files like this. Anyone know how to split the files into the individual tracks
    Any help would be greatly appreciated
    thank you

    It may use HJ Split or try any archiveing program, e.g: 7 Zip, WinRAR etc.

    You could get Winamp to play them and export as a WAV. I had a FLAC import filter for Winamp some years ago. Then you could split in say Audacity

    May have mis-understood your question, if you have a .cue file aswell Cue Splitter will sort you out

    No, I think the entire album is one track, rather than a number of different tracks. It's a right pain to sort it. I'd try find the album elsewhere and hope it is individual tracks.

    +1 for Audacity. May be a lengthy process but you'll get used to where the tune peaks off and know it's the end of the track.

    http://audacity.sourceforge.net/

    Just if you're saving the split files as mp3's you'll need to have a file called "Lame_enc.dll" (Audacity will ask you where it is when you're saving). You can get that here.

    I think mp3splt works with flac and a .cue.
