Hi all, I tried searching the forums but came up empty so I thought I'd ask... is there any way for SlimServer to stream AAC rather than mp3? I'm specifically talking about streaming to internet clients, i.e. pointing xmms, iTunes, or some other player to http://<SlimServer URL>:9000/stream.mp3 ... that URL is clearly only for mp3. Is there a similar URL for streaming AAC (stream.m4a perhaps)? I couldn't find mention of this in the docs either, so I'm thinking that this is not supported.
If this functionality does not exist, would it be possible to include it? If my library is encoded as AAC then I would not want to transcode it to MP3 prior to streaming... since iTunes can handle streaming AAC just fine, I'd like to be able to point it to my SlimServer and listen to my AAC files "as is." I understand that SlimServer would not be able to transcode non-AAC files into AAC, as it currently does for MP3 (since it can convert all other formats into MP3)... basically what I'm looking for is simply a way to bypass the MP3 transcoding and just stream the AAC files directly. Any thoughts? -- cepheid ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cepheid's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3845 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=23929 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
