How to play FLAC files?

I searched and saw that Xcellere mentioned playing FLAC files in the flash drive thread, but I haven't found out how to do it. I put the file on my flash drive and plugged it in and it didn't show up. The car recognized the drive, but didn't recognize the audio. Is there a special folder I need to create in order for the car to recognize it?

Ditto. I could also use some help. I have plugged the flash drive in and my car doesn't recognize it at all!

Not really a standard format. Download a converter. Google free flac converter. Sorry I can't remember which one I used.

The car only recognize WAV, WMA (also lossless) and Mp3 files. You can use MediaMonkey to convert flac to WMA lossless. The soundquality is very good.
