Hi, >From what I understand the Transporter/Classic/Boom is unable to decode the native 256 kbps/AAC-stream from WiMP, and conclusively you have to use the Squeezebox Server software to transcode the data stream to a Transporter/Classic/Boom unit. My question is this: are the older squeezebox units unable to play AAC streams higher than 96 kbps, or is the Squeezebox Server software unable to transcode the stream to anything higher than 96 kbps AAC? I'm guessing it's the former? //Stian -- stianmi ------------------------------------------------------------------------ stianmi's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=40730 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82260 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
