It can re-compress FLACs to maximize compression, verify and their integrity, and organize or clean up metadata (tags and embedded artwork) in bulk. By utilizing multi-core processing, redoflacs can perform these operations quickly on large libraries of music. Features - Multi-core FLAC compression & verification – Re-encode FLAC files to the highest compression level (default level 8) while verifying each file's integrity. Ensures all files are compressed uniformly and correctly. - Error checking (testing) – Scan FLAC files for any errors or corruption without altering them, logging any problematic files for review. - MD5 checksum validation – Check the embedded MD5 signature of each FLAC file to identify files missing a checksum. This helps detect files that may need re-encoding to embed a proper MD5. - Metadata pruning – Remove unnecessary metadata blocks from FLAC files (such as padding, seek tables, and embedded album art) to reduce file size. Only essential information (audio stream info and tags) is kept. - Retagging – Clean up FLAC tags by removing all tags and reapplying only a defined set of essential tags. This ensures consistent, well-formed tags across your library (and trims any extraneous whitespace in tag values). Missing or empty required tags are reported for user review before any retagging occurs. - ReplayGain calculation – Calculate and embed ReplayGain","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/sirjaren","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/sirjaren/redoflacs/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
