Hi Andy, me again - sorry to be a pain, I may be missing the point. I've got various m4a files of CDs I've ripped using iTunes. Currently they are transcoded using faad into FLAC before being sent to my SB3 or Boom (I created a custom-conf file to do this). If I go into the filetypes menu, and select AAC, the only options I have are transcoding ones - there doesn't appear to be any option to stream AAC natively. Am I doing something wrong, or will m4a files still need to be transcoded? -- t-force ------------------------------------------------------------------------ t-force's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14361 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=60571 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
