Elegant, if you only care about FLAC. I assume this proposed solution would be a bit messy if you wanted to support polarity flipping on all formats? In addition, transcoding removes some features, such as FF/RW, I believe? Also, would it not require flagging the song in some sligtly messy way to invoke this "transcoding" -perhaps alter file name extension? (Pardon me if I'm wrong, as I haven't explored Slimserver much yet.) -- P Floding ------------------------------------------------------------------------ P Floding's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2932 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=19961 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
