Depends on what your server runs on and how software support for WMA is on that one.
iPeng, SqueezePad and SqueezePlayer all support FLAC natively, at least iPeng and SqueezePad do NOT support WMA. WMA on iOS is not feasible unless you either want to violate licenses and risk to be banned from the store or pay north of 20k$ per year to Microsoft. I'm not 100% sure about SqueezePlayer, Google doesn't demand exclusivity for their store so theoretically you could allow binary re-distribution which would open the door for GPL'ed libraries. So WMA would have to be transcoded on the server side which works on Windows machines and I believe also on Linux (don't remember whether you need a plugin) but I'm not sure about OSX. If your WMA files are DRM'ed they won't run on any Squeezebox related systerm, including the Squeezeboxes themselves. My suggestion would simply be: don't use WMA, it's a whole license mess, almost as bad as mp3 but mp3 is at least supported on all major platforms. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97366 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
