Most of my music collection are ripped in Apple Lossless audio format (ALAC) stored in iMac via external HDD, may I know if XtreamerPro can support ALAC as I did not see ALAC in XtreamerPro's spec.
If ALAC is not supported, any possibility it will be supported in future firmware update? Currently I am using Squeezebox as my audio network media player connected to HIFI, it's good if XtreamerPro can be a backup device for audio besides video network media player. |

Guys, slightly out of topic. I wanna ask about lossless formats. Since so many of them, which are the ones more popular or acceptable across AV devices?

I am having this problem with my standard Xtreamer using scart connection. It's not just on the start screen but also on menus. Has been like this since I got it. To my eye it's least flickery on 720P 60Hz which is strange as my TV is not high def. My firmware is 2.4.3.
Cheers, Mike QUOTE(bad melatonin @ Oct 4 2010, 11:04 AM) - during system boot (welcome screen), i noticed that the wordings/fonts are blinking/flickering. is this normal?  |

i got mine from seller of Digital Mall, PJ.
as i remember, some member here got if from low yatt too. regarding to transfer speed, currently i had to use usb drive. its a hassle but not much choice left. wifi is not even an option cause it too slow as usually end up failed. my N router and xtreamer is around 5 meter apart. maybe when i'm moving to new house then i will setup proper connection. maybe using RJ45 |

Hi.
I bought xtreamer pro. Could anyone let me know how to connect it to my avr? I read from the xtreamer manual, 5.1 sound output is using optical cable. Can I choose to connect using hdmi cable and still get the same effect of 5.1 surround sound? Please help. Thanks |
