Hi Patrick Sorry to taint the pristine audiophiles section with my grubby AAC problems. ;-) I'm new to the forum and did wonder whether instead I should have posted this in the general discussion. Is there any way I can get this thread moved there? Regarding your suggestions, I am not transcoding the audio to MP3 - I have set rate limiting to 'no limit' which should simply decode the AACs via FAAD and then send the raw output across my network. I did wonder if I had a problem with FAAD, but as I mentioned previously, if I use FAAD at the command line to decode an AAC into a WAV, and then play that in Windows Media Player on my Windows PC, the quality is fine. However, for some reason Softsqueeze and Slimserver 2 seem to be having problems handling the output from FAAD when Slimserver decodes the AACs. I would have thought that my set-up is reasonably typical for anyone integrating an iTunes library into Slimserver, so I'd certainly be interested if anyone else is able to reproduce my symptoms. Thanks Nick. -- slimnick ------------------------------------------------------------------------ slimnick's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2333 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18219 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
