<li>Much better recovery for corrupted files</li>
<li>Better multichannel support</li>
<li>Large file (>2GB) support everywhere</li>
- <li><span class="commandname">flac</span> now supports FLAC and Ogg FLAC as input to the encoder (i.e. can re-encode FLAC to FLAC) and preserve all the metadata like tags, etc.</li>
+ <li><span class="commandname">flac</span> now supports FLAC and Ogg FLAC as input to the encoder (e.g. can re-encode FLAC to FLAC) and preserve all the metadata like tags, etc.</li>
<li>New <span class="code"><a href="format.html#def_PICTURE">PICTURE</a></span> metadata block for storing things like cover art, new <span class="argument"><a href="documentation.html#flac_options_picture">--picture</a></span> option to <span class="commandname">flac</span> and <span class="argument"><a href="documentation.html#metaflac_shorthand_import_picture_from">--import-picture-from</a></span> option to <span class="commandname">metaflac</span> for importing pictures, new <span class="argument"><a href="documentation.html#metaflac_shorthand_export_picture_to">--export-picture-to</a></span> option to <span class="commandname">metaflac</span> for exporting pictures, and metadata API <a href="api/group__flac__metadata__level0.html#ga3">additions</a> for searching for suitable pictures based on type, size and color constraints.</li>
<li>Support for new <tt>REPLAYGAIN_REFERENCE_LOUDNESS</tt> tag.</li>
+ <li>Fixed a bug in Ogg FLAC encoding where metadata was not being updated properly. Existing Ogg FLAC files should be recoded to fix up the metadata, e.g. <span class="command">flac -Vf -S 10s --ogg file.ogg</span></li>
<li>In the developer libraries, the interface has been simplfied by merging the three decoding layers into a single class; ditto for the encoders. Also, libOggFLAC has been merged into libFLAC and libOggFLAC++ has been merged into libFLAC++ so there is a single API supporting both native FLAC and Ogg FLAC.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>MD5 comparison failures on decoding are now an error instead of a warning and will also return a non-zero exit code (<a href="https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1493725&group_id=13478&atid=113478">SF #1493725</a>).</li>
<li>The default padding size is now 8K, or 64K if the input audio stream is more than 20 minutes long.</li>
<li>Fixed a bug in cuesheet parsing where it would return an error if the last line of the cuesheet did not end with a newline.</li>
- <li>Fixed a bug where missing STREAMINFO fields (min/max framesize, total samples, MD5 sum) and seek point offsets were not getting rewritten back to Ogg FLAC file (<a href="https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1338969&group_id=13478&atid=113478">SF #1338969</a>).</li>
