[slim] can SB do lossless FLAC 5.1?
Hello Forum, after having ripped all my Redbook CD, I am only left with a stack of SACD (and DVD-A). Now, some labels provide 24/48 highres 5.1 FLAC and WAV classical music for download. So that would be the way to go to also be able to use the SB for SACD quality music. The problem is that the downloaded sample from the website blows the SB, it hangs with ran out of decoder memory and has to be hard reset. My question is: is the SB SUPPOSED to process this stream (DTS works fine on my system). Also WAV of the same music does not work, it does not hang the system, but simply loops over the first 5 or so seconds. No sound coming out. Any idea?

[slim] Can SB play http://www.2l.no/hires/index.html multichannel
Hi everyone it seems that things are moving: after Linn audio now also the small audiophile Norwegian label 2L starts selling high resolution music from its web site. Here they also offer 5.1 Surround 5.1 FLAC 24 BIT / 48 kHz and lossy encoded music. Thus, it will be perfectly legal to purchase lossless multichannel music thus far only available on SACD/DVD-A. Which of these formats can the SB handle? greetings redil -- redil redil's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14488 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=42750 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Eric Seaberg;262783 Wrote: The answer depends on what you're feeding the SB3/Transporter into. My Transporter feeds an AV receiver capable of decoding AC3 and DTS streams. In fact, most of my DVD-A discs also have AC3/DTS streams available, and some of us on this list have a way to 'rip' those multi-channel streams making them playable from SlimServer. (you can search for those threads) So, I guess to answer your question, Slim hardware is capable of playback. It's up to you how you decode the stream. Eric thanks for the reponse. Indeed, I did read on the ripping (including the legal issues, here, we now have a LEGAL source of high res music) So you are saying DTS can be done. Any idea about the 5.1 34bit/48K (lossless) flac? I am feeding this into the toslink on a Linn UNIDISK SC. The lossless flac blows the SQ (error message: exceeding memory), the lossy starts and than hangs on the SB, with no sound. -- redil redil's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14488 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=42750 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
[slim] Annotation of Music
Hello Forum currently, I am ripping my classical CD collection and am just amazed what I have got: thats one of the beauties of this setup. Running the music playing from the laptop is just great. One question comes to mind and may already have been addressed, if yes, have mercy. It would be great, if music pieces could be annotated while listening: love this movement for this and that reason, avoid this, etc. Has something of this sort been discussed or even available? How do you people handle this issue? greetings Redil -- redil redil's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14488 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41506 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
