====== Find missing files ======
  * **flac** is rather sensitive when it comes to include images files into the encoded file. Other than mp3, if a image file format is not correct it would not include it in the resulting encoded file.
  * You can avoid this using my [[media:eah|Exact Audio Helper for Exact Audio Copy v1.5]] and [[media:aah|Audacity Audio Helper]] to create your library, as the scripts contain a working step where image files are converted to compatible format with the help of ImageMagick.
  *  To find those files in an older library, or one where ImageMagick was not used for image file conversion, here are the commands to be issued on a linux host to find the directories with missing flac files<code>find <parent dir> -type f -iname '*.flac' -printf '%h\n'|sort|uniq > flac.txt   # this command finds all directories which contain flac files (replace "uniq" with "uniq -c" to have each line preceded with the count of files found)
find <parent dir> -type f -iname '*.jpg' -printf '%h\n'|sort|uniq > jpg.txt     # this command finds all directories which contain jpg files (replace "uniq" with "uniq -c" to have each line preceded with the count of files found)
grep -f flac.txt jpg.txt # find common lines in both files
diff flac.txt jpg.txt # find line differences in both files</code>
