If you have flac files its important to have flac set to native or else the server transcodes to WAV . This is the default setting btw .
For WAV or aiff files the choices are a bit different , the default is to transcode , reason being that it saves bandwith as many uses wifi . Remember flac is lossles but has lower bitrate than PCM but sound quality is the same. However not all servers can do this transcoding so here is a case where not transcoding makes sense . In most cases for most people the default settings in file types makes most sense , the settings are really there for corner cases with OS and hardware combinations that will not do something , or some custom choice of transcoding mechanism with some plugins . -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
