[slim] Re: Chances of Native Apple Lossless Support?
i was thinking the exact same thing. i thought that one segment of the codec was open source, but i didn't remember whether it was encoding or decoding or where to read up on it. thanks for the link. so i guess the question is whether or not you could use this tool to make it work. -- indianajones ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Re: How to use FLAC?
i hadn't responded yet because i wanted to listen for a week or so to test it out. no, i don't hear any glitches or problems at all using the method i described. playback is now 100% flawless using apple lossless. i don't know what the problem you're having could be coming from. are you wireless or wired? i have a wired sb1. i do think i will be getting sb3 shortly, so it will be interesting to see if there are any problems again. as of right now though, i don't hear any glitching after a week of critical listening on my setup... -- indianajones ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Re: Missing Files
i've had the exact same problem since i first bought my sb. itunes reports 6123 songs, while slimserver reports 6012. i have no idea what the problem is, and i've never been able to fix it. when bought the sb back in january i believe the software was 5.4 or something like that, and the problem existed then and does now, all the way up to and including 6.2 -- indianajones ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Re: How to use FLAC?
Hiroyuki Wrote: Munge, Currently there is a bug with the SB2 using the Apple lossless. It cuts off the beginning of each songs slightly. Sometimes you will notice that by listening to the beginning of the songs but that's rare. The most problematic thing with that is when you are listening to a continuous live recording CDs or any continuous recordings, you will notice the gap between songs. It gives you slight clicking sound between the songs. I have a lot of Apple lossless files myself and I'm hoping that the issue will be solved soon. Best, Hiroyuki On Sep 19, 2005, at 8:58 AM, Munge wrote: well, you are in luck my friend, as i have FINALLY figured out the solution to our problem. after about 6 months of effort and going back and forth with tech support, i now have flawless apple lossless playback. the key is to first go into the server options under file type. there you will see the three apple lossless checkboxes, one for AIFF, one for FLAC and one for MP3. the first two must be unchecked leaving just the apple-MP3 option checked. next go to player settings and go to audio. the last option, bitrate limit, should be set to no limit so the apple lossless files will be streamed as uncompressed pcm. this has resulted in not having that pause in the beginning of each song that has caused me to nearly go crazy over the past 6 months. let me know if it works for you, it sure did for me!!! -- indianajones ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Slight Pause as Songs Begin
this is driving me crazy. when a song starts, it will play for a few seconds, then there will be about a 1 second pause, then it will begin again. i've noticed that it doesn't happen at all with mp3 files but happens EVERY time and with every song with Apple Lossless files. I've had the SB for about 2 months now and it has been flawless until this started about a week and a half ago. please help. -- indianajones ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
