Default Flac bit torrent files

Hi, I need some help. I have down loaded some Mac concerts using Bit torrent. That was fine. I tried converting them on this flac program. They are flac files. But I can not find one player that will play these files. I have tried everything from these sites that are suppose to support these types of files. What am I doing wrong.
Thanks. I have spent hours trying to figure this out.

Um, which shows have you downloaded?

Get Flac Frontend from http://flac.sourceforge.net/download.html. Click the installer, at one point it will ask you whether you want to download and install WinAmp at the same time or not. You should install it, because when you have both Flac Frontend and WinAmp installed you'll be able to play the files on your computer. At least I can do that.

For burning them to an audio disc? Use Flac Frontend to convert them to .wavs, then burn those .wavs. Or you could use db Poweramp Converter from http://www.dbpoweramp.com/dmc.htm. Remember to also get the .flac codec for that one: http://www.dbpoweramp.com/codec-central.htm. I find db Poweramp easier to use, but maybe I'm just technically challenged.

Thanks Face of glass for your help.
I did figure it out using the dBpower amp and the codes.
Simple player with a great sound.
I down laoded 2 Fleetwood Mac concerts, One from 1975 and 1977.
Simon and Garfunckle from this year, that one is great. Plus a Paul McCartney from last year.
I got these all from bt.easytree.org

Yeah, that 12-1-1977 Nagoya concert is something that people have been adding to their collections recently. Thanks to this site.
