built its library, you don't need to repeat it. If it is taking more
than that for you, then there is still something wrong. I wonder if
your Squeeze Center database is damaged in some way? (I would be
tempted to suggest a clear and rescan...)

tweaking the tags that Squeeze Center provides in order to have JR MC
end up with a similar view in its UI to what you see in the Squeeze
Center UI. (However, this may be largely a matter of trial and error).

contain a list of urls "resources" describing ALL media formats that
the file can support. The minimum required format is L16, so Whitebear
always provides an L16 resource, and additionally it provides a
resource for whatever the native file format is too; so if your files
are flac, then this is also in the resource list. Therefore JR MC is
aware of the flac format, but the L16 being the first in the list is
what JR MC displays in its panels. 

But in any case when you do a Play To from JR MC back to one of your
own Squeeze Players, the issue is irrelevant, since finally the file
gets streamed from Squeeze Center to the Squeeze Player (it is not
channeled via JR MC) and Squeeze Center will play to the Squeeze Player
in whatever native format you have set up in your Squeeze Center
settings.

Try out Whitebear. The middleware that joins the two worlds of:
1. UPnP/DLNA media clients and media players, and,
