It is not a bug, it is an enhancement request. No work is currently
scheduled for this enhancement request.

Thanks Funkstar.
Found this when I read your link:

See Bug 571, Comment 32

Reopening bug to track M4A Lossless specific issue with Song Scanner

Alan, can you please comment and target the bug appropriately.

No specific plans to look at this in the near future.

So should I interpret this as this IS a bug and WILL be fixed, or not?

I don't know if ALAC transcoding can be configured and just hasn't or
not.

There have been quite a few bugs that relate to this issue, and they
all link to each other. Some are closed, some marked as duplicate, so
it's hard to work out what the current thinking on this is, but I
believe that linked bug is the best source of information.

Re: [slim] Fast Forward or Rewind in ALAC files?

2008-12-28 Thread newy

My bet is that until SC can stream ALAC, fast-forwarding or rewinding
ALAC files ain't gonna happen.  Unfortunately, I don't think there are
plans for the SB's to be able to stream ALAC as a native format so...
