Help extracting Flac File?

[graceadelica]

I have a file which I believe contains music in flac format - but it is not saved as a flac file, properties state "type of file - file". Is this encrypted in some way? Is it some kind of container? Is there any way of extracting the flac file?

if its a flac rename it to whatever.flac and then use tlh to extract it to a wav.

No, I've tried that and it didn't work. I think it's either encrypted or hidden within a container folder but have no idea how to covert it or anything.

throw the file in VLC and see what it does?
will it play?

If its a Flac file and you want to convert it to play on a CD use the free program burrrn, its address is h--p://www.burrrn.net/ ( Replace - - with tt )
If its Flac and you just want to play it and listen use VLC player, its also free
