Loading to memory setting

--- Quote from: RD James on July 16, 2017, 04:39:53 am ---There are two options for memory playback:
1. Load full file (not decoded) into memory.
2. Load decoded file into memory.
The first stores the compressed track in memory and decodes during playback, while the second begins to decode the track into memory before it starts playing.

Yes I understand that.
I am asking why are you using the term "compressed"!
Does MC compresses the file before loading?
Or are you referring to FLACs that are the most common files and are losslessly compressed files in the first place?

Unless you are playing WAV/AIFF audio tracks are compressed and must be decoded.
I updated my post to provide more information.

OK... that is what I meant too!
Thnx
So to conclude ... if the computer is used for playback only and not anything else the "load decoded file to memory" is the best setting .. Yes?

I don't see any benefit to it. I use the "Load full file (not decoded) into memory" option.

Here's some more opinion on decoded vs. encoded memory playback:
