Curious as to whether the highly transparent system of firmware updates and a good team making things better had gone the mile, I converted a 24/88 .wma which does play in Transporter although the sample rate is reported at 22.7 kHz, to 24/88 .wav using the free Microsoft wmal2pcm converter.
Foobar, Winamp and WMP all play the file and show file properties as 24/88 Transporter will not play this file, producing loud hiss with a very faint background of some music, too faint to be discernable. So I still find all this quite odd. At present it seems Transporter will play: 24/88 wma at a slimserver reported high bit rate BUT diminished sample rate of 22.7 kHz. 24/88 flac at a slimserver reported high bit rate and 88.2 kHz sample rate. Transporter will NOT play 24/88 .wav files! So I still question if Transporter is properly playing these 88.2 kHz file formats. Is it hit and miss? Are these inconsistencies bugs? Is it being worked on? Was Transporter never intended nor will it ever support 88.2 kHz? Im a bit surprised the powers to be wont step up to the plate and give us the true skinny. Also a bit surprised this thread has attracted only one responder. Perhaps no one cares about Hi-Res through the Transporter? Perhaps John Atkinson is correct when he states Transporter will not handle 24/88 Hi-Res files. Its certainly not handling them consistently in my experience. -- RGibran RG --------------------------------------------- Transporter > PS Audio GCC-100 > Martin Logan Aeon I ------------------------------------------------------------------------ RGibran's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10220 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40315
