Kodi 14 - lost flac encoder - User 224437 - 2014-12-24
XBMC 13.2 on Lubuntu 14.04.01 - upgraded to Kodi 14 today. Config and libraries migrated OK and I have reset user and autostart.
Prior to the upgrade I had Music set to rip CD and use FLAC audio encoder. When I checked system settings post upgrade, the encoder was set to "none" and I have a choice only of AAC and WMA and no others to install. The menu selected AAC when I exited. Can I get back to creating to FLAC music files and, if so, how?

Ah crap, I knew I forgot to add something to the Helix FAQ (wiki). Basically, most of the audio encoders are now binary add-ons, and right now the internal Kodi add-on manager can't access them (but I hear this will be added in the future), so you install them as an apt-get package. This is also how PVR add-ons are handled.
Code:
apt-get install kodi-audioencoder-flacI'll add all of this to the Ripping CDs (wiki) wiki page.
EDIT: xbmc-audioencoder-flac -> kodi-audioencoder-flac

I have the team-xbmc PPA configured, but attempting to install either "xxxx-audioencoder-flac" fails with package not found. Neither is listed in Synaptic, either. The only audio packages listed relate to "audio-dev". Any suggestions?

sudo apt-get update then try again

I did (do every time), but nothing then.
Just tried again.
Now have whole bunch of stuff, including PVR related, not previously showing.
Thank you ... now have FLAC, LAME & Vorbis available.

I build Jarvis myself from sources on Debian. Where can I find the encoder addons in that case?
The official repo does not show any encoders.

https://github.com/xbmc - separate repositories. remember to build and install kodi first to get addon bindings available on your system.

Have just reinstalled with Lubuntu 16.04 on the weekend, had a hiccup with the team-xbmc ppa not working so no Kodi, just tried again and got Kodi 16.1, but no FLAC or other encoders again.
Tried the apt-get update and apt-cache search commands as before and get nothing.
Where are the other audioencoders now, please?
RE: Kodi 14 - lost flac encoder - Ned Scott - 2016-04-27
Same answer, they're in the Team Kodi PPA. If the Team Kodi PPA is not working then you cannot install them.

Still looking for the audioencoder packages in team-xbmc ppa for Xenial. Lots of other stuff has appeared, but no encoders.
Alternatively, any suggestions as to where I might find them another way? I tried the xbmc-old ppa route, but the packages were not there either.

should be fixed now.
RE: Kodi 14 - lost flac encoder - User 224437 - 2016-05-12
Thank you ... all sorted ... back in action.
