Need help with burning FLAC to a CD on windows

[M1RR0RED]

Hey i was wondering if anyone could tell me how to burn FLAC songs to a cd

[aisle9]

Convert them to .wav

[M1RR0RED]

for clarification, I am running windows 10

[M1RR0RED]

oh whats the best program to convert them to .wav that is free? Also will windows media player be able to burn .wav songs to a cd?

[Neftex]

well first you should specify what you want to do with the cd? do you want to archive the songs in the flac format or maybe you want to play the cd in your car cd player

i want to play the cd in my car

I'm pretty sure Windows Media Player will just burn the FLACs onto the CD as proper CD streams rather than FLAC files.

Should be able to burn with EAC.

 

Now if you need to convert from .flac to .wav, look into ffmpeg.

so my goal is to take my flac format songs, put them on a cd, while trying not to lose any of the formats data, to play them in my car

If you're talking about burning it like a normal audio CD I'm pretty sure Foobar can do that. If you're talking about burning flac files to be on a data CD because your CD player and read flac files. I'm 80% sure I did that on CDBurnerXP possibly with ImgBurn as well (both at Ninite)

You do not need to convert the files to WAV beforehand.

 

Use a CD Authoring program to burn a Music CD.

 

Options:
Windows Media Player

iTunes (note: you'll have to convert from FLAC to ALAC first - but the process is lossless and file sizes remain similar)

Etc

 

Here's a guide with multiple recommendations, and the steps for each one:
