Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Transporter not playing large (24/96) files properly
Nice it worked! The bitrate and blocksize and the number 4608 does have nothing in common. It is a pure coincidense. 24bit 96kHz has a bitrate of 4608kbps. flac compresses into frames of a steady blocksize that has a maximum of 4608 samples per block for sampling rates up to 48kHz. This was used as default earlier but now it uses 4096 samples.

I used dbPowerAmp to rewrite/override files at #5 compression level and it seems fine now. "db" still shows 4608 bit rate under "details", but whatever I didn't even need to rescan. Thanks! (For the record, this was Led Zeppelin's Physical Graffiti which I purchased from livedownloads.com. It seems that some of the other Zep "fat" files have the same issue.) bzlrbi's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=30606 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107593 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
