Wishlist / Feature Requests / Flac Support over Icecast
« on: June 03, 2019, 09:28:08 AM »
Hey guys,
I've loved Winamp for years and have used it daily for hours on end and was incredibly glad to see this community driven update, and I was hoping it would fix one of the program's largest flaws in my opinion.
Recently, my Icecast station has flicked the switch to allow listeners to tune into a FLAC stream, something which isn't supported at all through the original Winamp or this update. Previously when we allowed OGG Vorbis, we ran into the same problem, which we fixed by adding a file extension to the end of the mountpoint name, but the same does not work here leading me to believe that FLAC is completely unsupported. It's because of this that I've had to for now *gasp* switch over to the dark side, but if you guys could impliment this, I'd love to be back on WACUP ASAP.
Thanks,
Viper
