| Notes | Notes (April 2025): -no previous record of this recording on dime or TTD -based on how the files were originally named I think I downloaded these files in 2022 through a link provided by a trader on guitars101 to their collection of Elton John recordings (I forget who this person was) -the trader probably did not record this -I recall that many of the recordings in the link provided by this trader had lossy lineage and/or were remastered by them, but these files are definitely lossless and I don't think this is remastered -the files were originally organized in two CD folders, named as "EJ0", "EJ1", etc. with the indexing starting from 0 and were without an info sheet or checksum -to satisfy dime's rules for file name indexing, I renamed the files as 01,02, etc., then put them in a single folder and made a ffp checksum -upon trying to reverify the checksum I created, I got errors of "failed verification (checksum in file header matches, but checksum of audio data does not match)." -according to this TTD thread (http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/showthread.php?t=134069), the issue is basically that the flac files from the trader didn't have a standard flac file header due to the program they used (perhaps to encode the WAV files from a CDR rip to FLAC?) but the audio itself was fine -my solution was to convert the files to WAV and then back to FLAC with TLH, and now the ffp checksum I create actually works |
