I have three different devices that all work with a plain flac stream with no library information and no control facility required of them other than to decode the stream they are given. The only tweak I have to apply is to use different quality output (24/96 for 2, 24/192 for the other - mainly just to prove it works!).
Using UPnP renderers as controllers, using libraries, different formats etc, I agree with you. I have a Humax PVR which is very particular with both video formats and how the library works - very few video streams work at all. LMS 7.9 on VortexBox Midi running Xubuntu 14.04, FLACs 16->24 bit, 44.1->192kbps. Wired Touch + EDO, coax to Musical Fidelity M1 CLiC. Wireless Xubuntu 14.04 laptop controls LMS via Chromium. Meridian Explorer USB DAC to listen via Squeezelite on Vortexbox & other PCs as required. Spare Touch in loft. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ PasTim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41642 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101622 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
