FLAC metadata FAQs
What can I see in a FLAC file?
See Vorbis comments (including custom fields), embedded pictures, and sample rate/bit depth/channels for FLAC files without altering the audio.
Do you change or recompress my FLAC file?
No. The viewer only reads metadata from your FLAC file and shows it back—streams, pixels, and content stay untouched.
What if my FLAC file has little or no metadata?
Some FLAC files ship with minimal fields. We show everything present—if a tag is missing (like GPS or author), there simply isn't any data to display.
Can I verify attachments or previews in a FLAC?
Yes. If the FLAC contains embedded previews, cover art, fonts, or thumbnails, we surface those entries so you know what ships with the file.
Can I copy the FLAC metadata for documentation?
You can copy the on-screen results to include in tickets, audits, or delivery notes without modifying the original FLAC.
