That's good to know as it was always something that bugged me a bit.

XP SP2. I did some more testing... With FLAC set to decode server side, playing a track pops flac.exe up into the process tree (as expected) and the track in question fails to work. I then removed flac.exe from the server/bin subdirectory and tried again. This time no flac.exe (of course) in the process tree, but squeezecenter still attempted (and failed to play) - I assume it falls back to internal decoding if flac.exe isn't available. Setting FLAC->NATIVE (eg client-side) once again the track works correctly. And as noted, with FLAC->WAV server-side transcoding, which fails with the SB and Duet, it works perfectly well with SoftSqueeze (firmware 2) Any debug logs I can turn on which might help?
