I'm using EAC/FLAC to rip to .flac files on a single file per album basis. I get a .cue file produced which goes into Playlists on my Acer Revo while the .flac file goes onto a NAS drive. Works well for single album rips but when I have those 'two albums on a single CD', like Humble Pie's Thunderbox/Street Rats compendium album, it falls over.
EAC does not seem to be able to produce a single .flac file for a selection of tracks from a CD, only a file for each selected track. But EAC is the culprit so not to worry on the XBMC forum. As a workaround I can produce one FLAC file of the entire double album and separate .cue playlist files for each. So I drop two separate .cue files into playlists. Then when I access these in XBMCLive the darned thing has stitched them back together again into a single large double album!
Can anyone suggest how to handle this situation successfully?
