Had reports on a A110 that AAC works after getting the new firmware.
http://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp?for...o=1#270786 Guess I'll try my A100. Any thoughts Martin?

It certainly doesn't work for me. My first thought is he could be using DVRMSToolbox to convert WTV files to a PCH compatible standard it does the transcoding for him. My vlc command line does do a reasonably good job too, the lip sync seems correct on the four files I have, and it is fast enough for on-the-fly transcoding.

hmm weird, I'll get it down and try anyway, but i wasn't holding breath since you would have mentioned it during beta.
Nothing else in that firmware i should be aware of?

Seems to be working fine for me anyway. Have upgraded my PCH and used mvpmcx2 afterwards wothout any problem.

I haven't posted anything about upgrading the A110 since although it worked fine for me I noted that a GBPVR users dave.t posted on the NMT forum that he couldn't get apps to install and since he wasn't alone I thought I'd wait. The apps did install fine on my A100
@psycik, I read the replay on the geekzone.nz thread and there is on-the-fly transcoding going on, so if sub is interested it can be done with gbpvr too. Alternatively once Win 7 is more established I could see about playing AAC files using the updated Win 7 UPnP server although it would be with mono again. Martin

If you are interested in testing I've modified the Web Radio plugin to transcode HE-AAC files on the fly with vlc all in gbpvr

Download the UbuRecordingService to transcode for the NMT/MVP http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Plugi...eSetup.zip 3. Download and install the msi VLC installer http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-windows.html Once you get Web Radio running, I'll walk you through a he-aac decode test. Thanks, Martin |
