Just encoded some wavs as flac using Max (http://sbooth.org/Max/) on Mac OS and again these fail to work in Mixxx.
The file meta data says encoded using: reference libFLAC 1.2.1 20070917.

All of the files I have that wont play also play fine in Songbird, VLC, Traktor. So far Mixxx is the only app that can't handle the files so while it is tempting to say they are just non-spec conforming files, given they play everywhere else, I think there needs to be a Mixxx fix. I wondered if this could be a version thing but the version of encoder looks pretty close, not sure how significant the b is.

Does mixxx have a bit rate limit? Flac files by there nature will tend to be high e.g. the file I'm looking at is 698kpbs. Although that shouldn't stop it reading the meta data at minimum.
