Hi there, Just a little thing : FLAC is readable in firefox OS but you have to turn the .flac extension into .mp3 or any nativly firefoxos readable format. The metadata are not availble though... I guess flac support wouldn't be very hard to create then as it is only a database problem but I am not a dev... +++ Hugo _______________________________________________ dev-media mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-media
