Hello,

As I understand Canola2 uses mplayer as backend. Standalone mplayer can play FLACs on my N800 but those file are not seen in Canola2. How to enable them from GUI?

TIA

Hah, FLAC's on the N800. As cool as that would be, they're giant.

Regardless, I guess Canola doesn't recognize them, even though MPlayer can play them.

Marcelo will probably post in this thread, so have no fear.

Hi Syntra and hi vvaz =)

Yes, here I am =) So the thing is : The Mplayer in canola is the same. The thing is that our Scanner is not (YET) indexing the flac files. For sure we will add this support (as is just a new type of supported media etc). So I see no problem of adding the support if people need it =)

Hi Marcelo!

I was dead on, eh?

I'm gonna assume we'll be seeing FLAC reading in the release?

Thanks We need this. With cheap 4GB SD cards I can commit 3GB of space for music. This is 10 CDs in flac format - enough for 2-3 days of listening in great quality.

I would also love to see flac support in Canola2. Nearly all of my music is in flac, and I've been holding out buying a memory card until one of the media players supports flac.

Yup, same here. I play them with mplayer, but a nice frontend would be very nice!

Hi guys,

We added a basic support ( no tagging / browsing abilities) but it's seems to be working..
it would be nice to hear from you if it's working with your files! Next update we will implement the tagging system..

FLAC's great - I'm playing FLAC files on Canola2 now.

Any idea when you can implement support for tagging and images embedded in the FLAC files (ID3v2)?

My other big ask would be DAAP support so that I could use Canola2 to get at the music I've ripped onto a Firefly server - any chance of that?

Thanks
