Those are not opposite statements. Transcoding from one file format to another only happens in the server, the player decodes a bunch of native formats (such as FLAC) for playing. Yes, you could view that as "transcoding" too, but it isn't coding it into another format, it is just decoding/interpreting it for the DAC. > > What is the differences with these settings : > FLAC AIFF -> flac > FLAC -> Natif > MP3 -> flac/lame > PCM -> flac > > And this one : > FLAC AIFF -> Desactivated > FLAC -> Natif > MP3 -> Desactivated > PCM -> Desactivated The first one says: "If you have a FLAC file, and the player wants AIFF, use the flac program to transcode it If you have a FLAC file, and the player wants FLAC, just send it as is If you have a FLAC file, and the player wants MP3, use the flac + lame programs to transcode it If you have a FLAC file, and the player wants PCM, use the flac program to transcode it" The second one says: "If you have a FLAC file, and the player wants AIFF, don't play the file If you have a FLAC file, and the player wants FLAC, just send it as is If you have a FLAC file, and the player wants MP3, don't play the file If you have a FLAC file, and the player wants PCM, don't play the file" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Julf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=42050 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98063 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
