It would be quicker to figure how to rip CDs to take advantage of HDCD as outlined in this thread. Microsoft seems to have little interest in HDCD. HDCDs are still being produced, but who knows for how much longer. HDCD decoders aren't free, and in the Transporter it would have to be added in firmware. The firmware is apparently nearly full as it is and others want AAC added. I personally couldn't use AAC but (sadly) it would be much more popular than HDCD and much more likely to be added if there was space to even add it to the firmware. Also existing HDCD implementations seem to be in DSPs or hardware only. The only software implementation seems to be WMP. Whether Microsoft would license a software-only HDCD decoder that could be used in SB/Transporter firmware only they can say, but given their disinterest in the format, it's not likely. So it would be quicker to try to get it working as outlined here. -- Mark Lanctot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Lanctot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32967 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
