Exactly ,this binary is usually installed with LMS on many platforms ,ut it may depend on the install package , it is excluded in some NAS version as it wont work anyway and there is no version avaible for certian types of cpu . This would not be a problem with your Touch as it does 24/96 fine and sometimes 24/192 with EDO . This is in fact a valid use case for EDO if you got some 24/192 files they would normally transcode to 24/96 to a standard Touch ,(btw If the site selling the hirez offers 24/96 and 24/192 go for the "lesser" one .) You can also use foobar2000 or dBpower amp and samplerate convert to 24/48 and use those copies if playing and syncing with the Radio is an important use case for you ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97432 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
