Splitting FLAC

Got a few albums that are encoded into single FLAC files, making the files quite big and unwieldly. And the iPod and iRiver that I have don't support FLAC.

To split the single FLAC into multiple tracks, you'll need the cuesheet that was generated when the FLAC file was created. Best way to do this is to use foobar2000, which I already have, and I don't want to download extra software like CUESplittler. Simply drag and drop the cuesheet into foobar2000, and it'll load the tracks. Right-click and choose convert. You can choose the output format, destination format, file-naming options, post-processing, etc. Make sure you have the encoders first.
