I have just found the Boston Symphony Orchestra site, with well-priced high-res files of several of their recordings. However, they are all WMA 88.2K/24bit lossless. I am used to playing high-res FLAC files with no problem. These WMA files will not play at their native resolution on my Touch. When transcoded to FLAC they are downsampled to 44.1K and when trancoded to WAV they play as noise (through both the analog and digital outputs). I had to convert the files on the HDD to FLAC, and now they play fine at 88.2K.
Since I have done hardware modifications to my Touch (to slave it to external clocks and tap the I2S connection) I want to be sure this problem is not due to my mods. Is this a known limitation of the Squeezebox server? If so, it seems like something they should fix. Is there an alternative to wmadec as a transcoder?
