I agree, and for once it's quite easy to do a reasonably rapid A/B test
by having an MP3 stream and an AACplus stream on the Favourites and
rapidly switch between. No contest, to my ears.
Thanks for the tuner2 tip, too.

Apologies, bpa, for dragging you away from Alien work.
Could there be a prob with mplayer? In other words, my assumption is
that your aacplus 'plugin' tells an aacplus stream to look for mplayer,
and mplayer 'plays' it. So is there a way to test if mplayer is working
OK?
--
whitman
Sorry I'm being dim here.
Is there another way to get aacplus feeds into SC without your
'plugin', perhaps? I seem to remember when I got it going in 6.5.x I
had to change some config files or similar.
