cylon 15 Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) All my music is in FLAC format and I have been using the web client to play it quite a bit lately on various devices. Only one of them has the correct codecs installed to decode FLAC. What I am surprised at is how good the music sounds on everything. Are the LAV filters decoding the steam and then allowing it to be streamed across the network (no transcoding) at its full bitrate or is there some compression involved? Either way, I am impressed!

DGMayor 88 Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Lav filters are used for locally played material on the computer that Lav is installed on (depending on client - MBC, MBT). Anything streamed is re-encoded using ffmpeg.exe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cylon 15 Posted January 2, 2014 Author Share Posted January 2, 2014 Not always. we'll just stream the original file as-is when it's possible to do so. That explains why is sounds so good - nice work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
