My situation is similar. I have an SB2 synced with an SB3. I've had two

You can use standard faad but you will not be able to listen to

Somehow I'd lost track of the fact that the SB supports WMA directly.
I'd been sure I'd seen that it didn't.
In any event, there don't seem to be any separate options for WMA
lossless, so if it is transcoded it must be to flac without alternatives

Same here. The only time I have had rebuffering issues has been with
7.3.3. There has been no changes to my computer, HP using Vista, my
DLink wireless network or external hardware. I'd say with high
probability its a 7.3.3 issue but it also is infrequent enough that I
just put up with it.

Let me add to the fray and say that I too had never experienced a
rebuffering until my recent update to 7.3.3. I'm wired and it's
intermittent, but it's there and it's damned annoying when it surfaces.

The only way it will play FLAC files is if you load a 3rd party

The SB has handled regular WMA (ie, lossy WMA) natively for some time
