How to use Play to play the "cue" file?

[shino]

I don't know how to use it.... How to play "cue" file?

[sbooth]

Add the cue file to your library, and the individual tracks should show up.

[shino]

I already try that way to play the cue file but it doesn't work. I add the cue to library but it didn't show up. Now it just can play ape or other file.

[sbooth]

Play is a bit finicky when it comes to parsing cue files. Are there any error messages in Console?

[shino]

where is console? My cue file all can play by the Foobar.

[RonaldPR]

Console is in /Applications/Utilities/
Open Console and see if any error messages are written to Console log when you try to add the cue file to Play library.

[sbooth]

Can you post the cue that isn't working?

[shino]

All of them are not working.

What's wrong with it? I need set something?

[sbooth]

I'm wondering if Play can't find the audio file the cue sheet refers to. Perhaps seeing a sample cue will give me some insight...

The flac and cue are in the same file

[sbooth]

So this is a FLAC file with a cue sheet embedded in a comment? If so, Play does not support this for FLAC files- only the native cue sheet metadata block is supported in FLAC.

[shino]

Could you show me what is the right type of cue file

[sbooth]

The same cue you posted should work, as long as it is a plain text file with a .cue extension.
