That's really strange - except the 24 bits /packed PCM case that I'm not able to test due to lack of HW, I don't have issues with pcm mode. Just for clarity, I've tried another version of the UI to help understanding better the parameters. But for example, when you set, "sample size" to 24 bits and do transcoding (use anything except empty or 'none'), then everything is *forced* to 24 bits. While if you leave sample size empty (now I've called that "source" hoping that it will be more clear), the sample size of the source is used, whatever it is. In other words, if you have a 16 bits flac file and you've set transcode to pcm, the the flac is decoded and transmitted in 16 bits pcm. If the source is a 24 bits, then the 24 bits packing rule applies. But if you have set sample size to 24, then even if you send an 8 bits mp3 file, it will be decompressed, upgraded to 24 bits and send as 24 bits pcm So in your case if I made mistake with 24 bits packed pcm and you've forced sample size at 24, then nothing will play, vs if you had left it to "source", only 24 bits files wouldl be affected. Again, I immensly appreciate your help but I don't want that to be to too much of a pain or stress for you, so if it is, don't worry, I'll find another way to test Regards LMS 7.7, 7.8 and 7.9 - 5xRadio, 3xBoom, 4xDuet, 1xTouch, 1 SB2.
