Can confirm with latest master on OSX.
Flac files play fine, but the file extension is invisible in the library Typcolumn and properties editor.

I found the error. The flac soundsource didn't set the type variable. Fixed in.

Hi,
test with build 5202: New flac are now listet as flac. OK

Question:
Is there a workaorund for files with empty typ? Reason: After the rescan i looked to the old without flac, no flac found after the test.

Not straight forward I'm afraid.

Try to rescan the affected files (delete metadata and rescan). Otherwise
you need to use a separate application to change our sqlite database.
