How to get iTunes to play FLAC

DONE IT!!!

Audirvana has a method whereby it imports flacs into itunes via a proxy file - see page 10 of their manual on how to do this.

There appears to be one caveat at present and I've told them about it - you have to have the flacs on the computer's hard drive.

I originally had the flacs on my NAS drive and Audirvana could not link the proxy to the file.

The Audirvana interface identifies the file being played as flac

Sounds fantastic - and I no longer have to convert - bluddy brilliant :-)

Audirvana support was fantastic - same day response with a problem resolution!

How's them Apples! :-)

Oooops - forgot to thank you all for your input

FYI . I had been converting to AIFF using MAX and it worked very well - now I can save a step :-)

UPDATE - it appears there are a few glitches with Audirvana...

If you put some titles in a playlist and let it cycle round - when it returns to the start it plays the track at half speed

Selecting a track outside of the playlist fixes that.

Provided feedback - hopefully a fix will be coming

Back to the toons :-)

UPDATE: the problem I reported above seems to have fixed itself - once I rebooted the iMac - typical Apple

Everything is now playing as it should

Just reboot after installing Aurdirvana if you experience problems - You should probably reboot after installing all programs knowing Apple

Damien (of Audirvana support) could not replicate the problem
