Unless you are using the very latest LMS you have to use flac streaming for greater than 96. The slimproto in all earlier versions doesn't have a way to say 176.4 or 192 so it maxes out to 96. When you stream flac it contains the sample rate in the flac header so it can tell its using one of the higher rates. The higher rates were added recently to slimproto, but they are only in the beta versions of the software. (I'll let Michael tell us if the higher sample rates are in the version he just released) John S. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JohnSwenson's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=5974 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94512 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
