file Support .swf + Itunes format support.

[Dj4nrv]

id like to see support for .swf files for the adverts as this would allow me to import The .swf graphics i already have rather than trying to convert them to a set of jpegs or gif images. Actually what format is the Videobox Ad Video? and direct itunes support so i dont have to convert my itunes purchases, M4a and the like which is actually quite a task seeing as m4a tracks come with no id3 info so media monkey and the like struggle a bit with converting and renaming tracks to my liking.

Agreed, the most time consuming part of operating this jukebox software is the converting from apple's file format. The videos are the worst, because of the time it takes too!

Plus, finding the artwork in the itunes folders is not always easy either, as it cleverly hides them all over the place.

Some help here would be appreciated.

Hi Dj & Rob

watchout dj  for mp3  police 

[Steve]

Hi John

Whats the mp3 police lol ?

[jukejohn]

just joking with dj i also told him to be aware of the xp police regarding
tiny xp the dude realy should relax instead of spending his money he
must be on a mega wage lol

John

Yeah he's probably loaded lol, have you seen that tablet PC of his, prettty impressive, I want one. 

Ps: do you know anything about these itunes files, are they .aac format ?

[jukejohn]

yes there acc im sure there a codec for wmp that plays them if thats the case
vjb should play maybe  also the flac files seem to be getting very popular
might be worth looking into that also

[Steve]

Did you mean AAC ?, Never heard of those flac files, who uses them ?

[jukejohn]

sorry acc flac is a nonlossy file as mp3 is a lossy file as your aware of

flac doesnt lose any quality as in cd quality but the downer was say a
album ripped at 320kbs would take up maybe 140mbs same album
in flac would take up 400mbs but now we use large drives this is not
a problem new laptops and pcs come with 320gb to 500gb drives with
hd sound quality its just how it is these days
do a google on flac and you will see steve got to keep up with the times
dude

[Steve]

Ok John, thanks for that, i'l see if I can get my hands on some of those files and have a play with them.

[jukejohn]

ok steve are we due a update re wish lists stuff or you keeping that hush hush 

I've just found myself witha bit of spare time while the new Kim replacement boards are in production, so I have decided to have a quick look at the wish list to see if there are any suggestions that could be quickly implimented in the short time I have available.
