I don't think that Apple Lossless is natively supported by Squeezeboxes, but to be honest I don't follow the status support for Apple's codecs closely so don't take my word for it. If indeed SBs don't have native support for ALAC that means if you had ALAC only it would have to be transcoded on your server. As long as your server has reasonable specs (ie, not some very underpowered NAS) then transcoding isn't necessarily a big problem. When you transcode on the server you do lose support for FF/Rew.
Also, if in the future you want to use the SB Touch with its built-in server (nicknamed TinySC or TinySBS) you'll need FLAC files, because that stripped down configuration of the server cannot transcode at all. Fyi, you should only need to do one clear and rescan to update your library. If it continues to take multiple scans to register your changes then something is still wrong. -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=74945 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
