Again, all comments appreicated as I'm new to all this.
ALAC playback will not and indeed cannot be added to the IP3K range of
players (SB2, Receiver, Transporter and Boom). AAC will be supported
We want to include native ALAC too.
And as for seeking support in AAC/ALAC, I have spent a ton of time
trying to get this to work and it still seems a long way off. So,
seeking may not be there when we ship. :(

I'm using XP operating system and iTunes library - files are Apple
Lossless. My SB3 runs firmware 127 and Squeezecentre is 7.3.3. Using SB3

bitrate in Squeezecentre of no limit.
The following display is found on the player and

I appreciate that Squeezecentre is converting Apple Lossless into FLAC
so SB3 can read, but this does not happen when playing FLAC files from
other locations.
Any thoughts on why this might be happening and how to stop the
conversion?
I don't really understand what
I was hoping that converting Apple Lossless to FLAC wouldn't impose a
fixed bitrate - and the quality degradation that might result. But
perhaps I don't understand what ABR is.

VBR = variable bit rate
ABR = average bit rate

Yes, thanks for that. What puzzles me is that the file is always
converted to 705.6 ABR, no matter what the file VBR bitrate. So
Squeezecentre appears to favour a fixed average bitrate, which then
leads to my thinking some files may be compromised in the process.

Good news if the ABR number is a placeholder.
I'm interested in native processing of Apple Lossless because of ffwd
functions and others that come with native processing.
Thanks for your help.
