Describe the bug
m4a is not converting to flac files, they remain as m4a, but audio stream is flac. File is also missing metadata of artist.

To Reproduce
tiddl -v url https://listen.tidal.com/album/184108921 download

In the logs, it appears to try to rename to flac, but no errors and they remain as m4a.

[01:01:23] DEBUG    [root.convertFileExtension] (WindowsPath('C:/Users/x/Downloads/Tidals/The Off-Season - J. Cole (2021)/10. t h e . c l i m b . b a c k.m4a'), WindowsPath('C:/Users/x/Downloads/Tidals/The Off-Season  utils.py:206

This album got downloaded with no problems on my machine.

I assume you are using master quality as convertFileExtension tried to extract flac from m4a.
Try to manually run ffmpeg -i in.m4a -c:a copy out.flac on one of the tracks and see if it's working.

Does the issue happen with other albums?
