11.1.71 (12/1/05)
4. NEW: Media Center natively plays m4a files through its audio engine when the appropriate filters are installed. (enabling cross-fading, ASIO, visualizations, etc.)
Great news! You never stop surprising us.
I guess MC is going get many new friends because of this. I happen to have some nice test material in AAC format for encoder testing purposes. I suppose it is time to start my MC beta testing cycle.
A question: What are the appropriate filters?
(Please post your AAC comments in this thread. :) )

From the release thread:
3ivx filters. http://www.free-codecs.com/3ivx_download.htm
It is classified as shareware at this download site. I do not know if it expires after some days of trial. I have not found a free filter for m4a yet. If I found one I will post.
Let's see what happens with 3ivx. I have a registered version on my HTPC, but I'll try this on my other PC.
Also, any other file format that you would like to be played natively in MC?
I'll make a list. Can I get them for Christmas?

I have a small unpublished and mostly audio related wish list. I'll check it out and reply later.
