miguelito Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 BBC3 is starting a pilot to stream lossless FLAC: http://www.bbc.co.uk/taster/projects/radio-3-concert-sound/inside-story @Miska: I understand HQPlayer can play FLAC streams. Would it work in this case? Also, would it be possible to allow to add such stream from the HQPlayer GUI? Currently the method is to add it via a playlist (I have not tried).

Cebolla Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 HQPlayer is going to need to play FLAC in an MP4 container being streamed by MPEG-DASH, ie, the BBC pilot stream is not a run of the mill FLAC stream. We are far more united and have far more in common with each other than things that divide us. -- Jo Cox Link to comment

I couldn't get it to work. LMS on Odroid XU4; HQPlayer on i7-8700; iFi iGalvanic; T+A DAC 8 DSD; Benchmark AHB2; Quad ESL 2805s + two Acoustic Energy subs. Link to comment
Miska Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 FLAC can be streamed either as bare FLAC stream, or in OGG container which is the typical way. First time I hear anybody has put FLAC into MPEG-4 stream container... But generally it works by either dropping a link on HQPlayer window, or alternatively through hqp-control for example hqp-control localhost http://cdn.something.com/stream.pls Signalyst - Developer of HQPlayer Pulse & Fidelity - Software Defined Amplifiers Link to comment
