It's not my App that breaks, it's their Squeezebox system. My App can do nothing about the fact that they have no artwork in their WAV files. My App can do nothing about the fact that with uncompressed HD streams all of a sudden they can't sync several players over WiFi anymore. My App can do nothing about the fact that some streams no longer play because they don't have the required codecs on their NAS.
But they still come to me because my App is how they use their system so obviously it has to be able to cope with all the stuff they do to their server and fix all these issues. > > Those are yuor opinons, not fact.

The customer has a problem, they don't care what part of the system breaks, they don't care whether it's their own fault, they want it fixed and it has to be fixed without them changing the transcoding settings back because, of course, "with FLAC the box sounds like crap". > > So I suggest you don't support WAV TAGGING, clearly STATE you retain > support IF PCM streaming is activated (you could check it in your > software, I suppose) in your software.

Plus, real-life users don't read that stuff anyway if it's more than two lines of text. Heck, I can't blame them, I don't. --- learn more about iPeng, the iPhone and iPad remote for the Squeezebox and Logitech UE Smart Radio as well as iPeng Party, the free Party-App, at penguinlovesmusic.com *New: iPeng 8, the Universal App for iOS 7 and iOS 8* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=104227 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
