Appendix D: Supported File Formats

Music File Formats

MP3 (CBR and VBR)	AAC (.M4A)
FLAC	Apple Lossless
WAV	WMA Lossless

Playlist Formats

The Squeezebox Duet and SqueezeCenter recognize playlists saved by

a variety of music applications, including iTunes and Windows Media Player. Supported playlist formats include: PLS files, M3U files (WinAMP) and WPL files (Windows Playlist).

Limitations

There are some known limitations with certain file formats:

1.FFW or REW within a track does not work with transcoded files.

FFW will skip to the next track; rew will move back to the start of the current track. Pressing REW twice will skip back to the previous song.

2.FFW or REW within a track does not work with WMA filles played back on the hardware. FFW and REW work the same with WMA as with transcoded files.
