How does Subsonic deal with ogg files?

Postby diffy » Tue May 22, 2012 1:15 pm

Is Subsonic transcoding .ogg files?
Would it not be better to stream ogg files directly and not transcode them into an mp3-stream?

This thought just hit me, as I have become quite the Ogg (q8) fan lately.

The web browser (JW Player) cannot play ogg files natively in certain browsers.
However if you are using a compatible browser or device you can stream ogg without transcoding -just alter the transcode settings accordingly.

Due to the confusion from too many genres of music, we have decided to put both country music and rap music into the genre of Crap music.
