Can anyone recommend linux software for > making an audio cd from a .flac file? short answer: K3b (http://www.k3b.org) makes this pretty easy longer answer: If you worry about bad burns from buffer under-run, you can reduce CPU load during the burn by de-FLAC-ing to WAV. # flac -d *.flac At this point it's a good time to fix Sector Boundary Errors (if any) using shntool (http://www.etree.org/shnutils/shntool/). SBE's can cause audible ticks or gaps between tracks. # shntool fix *.wav Alternative: SBE's can be fixed in the FLAC files # shntool fix *.flac ... then set K3b to burn the CD from an intermediatry .ISO by unchecking "[X] On the fly" from the Burn | Audio Project | Writing menu. This is the easiest to burn. (I'm sure there's a non-K3b command line way to do this, but I've never learned it.)
