Title: Two Questions....
Post by: dman on June 15, 2003, 06:36:19 pm

I just downloaded and installed Media Jukebox and have two questions:

1) How do I get Media Jukebox to support FLAC files?

2) Does Media Jukebox support .tif files for cover art?

Thanks,

man change them tif files to some other one like jpg.   them tif files are uncompressed and huge.   your wasteing hard drive space if your just keeping the cover art as tif.  

if your creating cover art then using tif is good as it is always the  same with less loss of data  then compressed files.  

but to just save photos in tif for the heck of it.  no  get them to jpg.  sure it will mess up some but you dont have to compress it to a small size just more then the tif files are, and they are not compressed.

There is no official FLAC support yet for Media Jukebox/Media Center. You can probably get the Winamp 2.x FLAC plugin to work for playback, but not tagging.

Yeah, but I want 48 bit color depth. I don't mind the size of them.
