At present the bulk of BBC radio is in RealAudio format especially the "Listen Again". SqueezeBox cannot play RealAudio natively and so need a PC to transcode RealAudio into Flac or MP3.
If you listen to live BBC - then all live national radio stations are available in WMA format and do not need a PC (i.e. use Squeezenetwork). However R1-R4 in WMA is restricted to UK. The BBC plans to improve quality and change/add audio formats from RealAudio & WMA to Flash player and then to AAC. However, at present Squeezebox requires a PC to play AAC or Flash format and there is no easy way to play Flash audio on squeezebox wqhere SBC is the controller. -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=50017 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
