[Voyage-linux] question on cue support in MPD

[Kim-man 'Punky' TSE]

Hi Joseph,

AFAIK, mpd does not support cue on flac files. Flac format already supports embedded tags , so there is no need for 
external cue sheet.

But cue works on .wav files.  That is what I have tested.  Hope this help.

Regards,
Punky
