Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] J River, etc vs SqueezeCenter
I use JRiver for ripping, tagging and organizing my music files. I really like the user interface much more than Squeeze Center. It is more responsive and can be modified quite easily to display your files in a variety of different ways. Although I haven't tried it yet, I believe the latest version can act as a DLNA server for Squeeze devices. Additionally, they sell their own DLNA renderer: http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/JRiver_Id. JRiver does support bit-perfect playback, but as garym pointed out, your soundcard needs to support bit-perfect as well. But as long as the software streams bit-perfect, it is the output device (SqueezeBox, soundcard or DAC) that will determine sound quality. pete -- widman widman's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8695 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92092 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] live recordings!
I haven't downloaded too many Hi-Rez shows, but have found numerous shows with great sound quality. I don't have access to the specific shows right now, but some of the artists are: Blues Traveler Cowboy Junkies Charlie Hunter David Gans Derek Trucks Garaj Mahal Glen Phillips Jason Mraz Little Feat (esp. older stuff) Robert Randolph Tea Leaf Green If MP3s are available for a particular show, I'll preview with my SB3 and then download the lossless files if the sound quality is acceptable. pete -- widman widman's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8695 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=46630 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
