But that's the thing: I've been playing local FLAC files for the past
3-4 months with no problems whatsoever (I could even play AAC etc, but
there were problems with moving from one track to the next, WMP would
cause the same AAC track to be replayed over and over). All of a sudden
it stopped working following the 7.7 upgrade. I'll try to downgrade to
see if I can play them again and do some track rescans. 

I'm also pretty sure that the file format of SBS's FLAC files in the WB
library was FLAC rather than PCM, although not 100%, since I mostly use
WB to play local files of my laptop to the Squeezebox.
