It is a tradeoff and it will depend on your system what is the best.
Also be careful of the settings to make sure not all formats (e.g mp3) are decoded into WAV which would in fact cause extra load. Using WAV also decrease the number of secs playing time in the SB buffer so if your system or network gets loaded every so often and is just a little bit slow in delivering the data - you are more likely to get stuttering. -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38176 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
