There is no faad or mplayer type audio transcoder for AAC on a NAS? Obviously I don't use a NAS. :) MySB detecting the type of player then deciding whether to offer AAC streams would be another option, but I'd guess that is not an easy implementation. I suppose they could also offer a "allow AAC streams" check box within that players MySB setup options, followed by clear warnings of possible issues if older players are in use. Like how MySB would handle Sync with a mix of newer & older players, then what? Not play stream at all? Only play on the newer player? Dunno, just thinking out scenarios where this could all be a big can of worms for MySB usage. ;( -- toby10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79402 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
