So did you enjoy another lame-ass cheap comment? You had better, otherwise your message would be a COMPLETE waste of space.

I'm not quite sure about this, co's I'm not an expert, but I think this is lossy. I used Tau Analizer after burnt it and the result was MPEG sourced! Then I burnt a Jimi Hendrix Flac concert and the result after the analisis was CDDA sourced!
Can anyone confirm this? I have to say that I don't care a lot about Flac or Mp3 files, but I do know that a lot of people care about this issue! So anyone?

Do you have sreenshots of the spectrum and freq. analyze?
Tau analyzer is quite accurate, but it can be wrong sometimes also.

Here's the info:

I don't know what it means, but whether it's Flac or not, thanks to the uploader!

Can`t see any reason why this should be lossless. This is just mp3 sourched material with no power at the higher freq, and it just fills your hardrive.

It is not lossless, it is lossy (the opposite)

Like i said, i can`t see why this should be lossless = this is lossy stuff, and should be deleted. Much better uploading this in mp3 from a lossless source.

Your brain should be deleted. If You have any...It was my last uploaded concert here.

Don't take it too seriously! You don't have to do that!

Don't take your ball & run away, learn about the meaning of lossless. It's to preserve the quality of the original recording. This means you have to inspect what you have first. Either through EAC, Cool Edit, Audition, etc, check a spectral view of a track. If there's a black area above 16000, it's usually MP3. Some mini disc also have a black area, but of course MD is also lossy. If not sure from there, try a frequency analysis (same programs), if there's a big dip around 16000 then it's been a MP3 at one time or another. With this one there is obvious blackness above the broadcast line & it also dips right off. My first clue was the file sizes, much too small for true lossless FLAC files.

If you'd like help with recognizing lossy material, I'd be glad to help you by email, including setting up EAC.

I've mailed you already, a couple of days ago. But you just don't answer it! Why? If I may ask...
