You are correct - it turns out that the default priority for AIF is the same as for WAV - transcode it to flac. Brian - you should not disable the FLAC setting. Please re-enable it. As I explained, there is no downsampling going on - and given the choice, the default behaviour is always to try and stream everything (all bitrates) as flac. The general advice is that the default settings in FileTypes are tehere for a good reason and should not be changed unless there is a compelling reason to do so.
