My experience matches Gordon’s.

I have not encountered a ‘flawed’ Flac encoder because I don’t use anything but some quite good software to make Flac files. I suppose some free converters on the Internet might have problems but that’s just a guess.

DJL, I do not recall seeing any posts here in which you reported a problem. I encourage you to make a separate post for each issue and give us a chance to help. If we are stumped, several of us can send a report directly to the developers.
