Software that actually works for converting FLAC to WAV (or MP3)?

Hi people,

just a quick question - can anyone know any software (or even legal freeware) that you can use to convert FLAC to WAV (or at worst to MP3), that actually works?

So many just dont!

Would appreciate your ideas..

Cheers

Tom

There's tons of freeware that does this. Maybe your errors are due to some conflicting installed audio for video codecs or something?
Make sure you are using a current version of the FLAC.exe Also, an OGG containing FLAC audio data is a different type of file than either an OGG file or a FLAC file; 3 different types. Be sure to read the instructions. Codecs typically require no syntax errors.

There are many more, but I got distracted by the cool links that came up from the search engine results

Audacity (recent versions with FFmpeg) can do it too pretty nicely.
Burrrn can convert FLAC directly to audio CD.
