So why would the receiver need an update exactly?
Other harware limitations limits all SqueezeBoxes except the transporter to 24bit 48kHz even on it's digital output. This limitation is afiak not going away with any kind of software update to a SB2/3 (classic) or an SBR ( Reciever part of duet ) probably a limit to what the processor can handle which is the same in SB2, SB3 (aka classic) and SBR. http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/HardwareComparison . 24/96 output on a simpler player than the transporter is very wanted indeed :-) then I could feed my pre/processor with 24/96 and offload the server from transcoding the stuff. -- Mnyb ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=64706 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
