All Squeezebox units since the SB-2 will natively process flac data. So the server sends the flac and the unit decompresses it. This saves a lot of wifi bandwidth, as flac are about half the size of PCM. And if you have multiple hops, it can save four times the traffic. -- Pat Farrell http://www.pfarrell.com/ _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
