    I'm trying to get some FLAC files (with a .flac extension) to play in MPC using ffdshow to decode - the file is not rendering. I got it to work at first by installing ogg codecs, but I'm wondering if there's some internal option in MPC that I can enable so it can filter the file and let ffdshow do it's thing. I'm trying to find out because I slipped the stream into an MKV/MKA container and noticed ffdshow seemed to be doing the work.

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    "Pure" .FLAC files require an appropriate source filter.
    You should give a try to CoreFLAC and madFLAC.

    VLC plays flac out-of-the box..

    Personally I use foobar2k(with plugin) or MediaMonkey for flac playback..

    Fair enough... This is my first experience with FLAC, so this was more of an "academic" exercise. Thanks for the feedback.
