Hi alltogether, I have some HQ ALAC-Files ripped from DVDs that I play over my Squeezebox reciever. As the reciever does not playback ALAC natively it ist transcoded by the server to FLAC. So far so good.
But when I look up the playback details I find the information as follows: Bitrate: 1534kb/s VBR (converted to 705kb/s FLAC) I thought FLAC and ALAC were similar in compression ratio and are both lossless formats. So how can it be explained that the FLAC is half th bitrate than the original ALAC? Thanks for an explanation.
