VLC can't open .flac file with .cue file

Postby Koma52 » 27 Mar 2017 19:07

I downloaded an album, and it's one (.flac) file, that containes the tracks. In the folder, there is a .cue file, wich is contains text like this:
REM GENRE "Power Metal"
REM DATE 2014
REM DISCID 9D1GB00G
REM COMMENT "ExactAudioCopy v1.0b3"
PERFORMER "Artist"
TITLE "Album(CD1)"
FILE "Artist - Album (CD1).flac" WAVE
TRACK 01 AUDIO
TITLE "track1"
PERFORMER "Artist"
INDEX 01 00:00:00
TRACK 02 AUDIO
TITLE "track2"
PERFORMER "Artist"
INDEX 01 04:39:15
TRACK 03 AUDIO
TITLE "track3"
PERFORMER "Artist"
INDEX 00 08:37:36
INDEX 01 08:39:61

And if I open the .cue with VLC, I get this error message:
Your input can't be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL '/E:/etc/duck/Artist - Album (CD1).flac'. Check the log for details.

What can I do? Have I done something wrong? How can I use the .cue file?
Thanks for the answers!
