No Wav-files to music-library - OscarDVD - 2011-12-19

When i have import my music-files to the music-library, there are only FLAC files imported, no WAV.
What's the problem ?

Can't say I've tried to import wavs but there's lots of good software, and lots of good reasons to FLAC 'em.

The music scan reads tags from the music files. Do your wavs have tags? I have a vague recollection that the WAV format does allow tags but that almost nothing supports them.

So I should rip again my original cd's with a better ripper/tagger ?

yes, rip to flac, no quality loss, 60% space, full tag support.
