Can not Play APE files on XBMC from MM4 as server

Postby javaboyuk » Wed Aug 01, 2012 4:41 pm

Rusty,
I can play from my MM4 server mp3, FLAC to my XBMC player/render using eezUPnP control point/client
I can also play video etc all seems fine BUT.....

APE files show up as an application file to the control point (eezUPnP, http://www.eezupnp.de/) and will
not play
eezupnp is quite nice as show the file info (I assume returned from MM) so the info icon gives me:
Mimetype: "application/octet-stream". I believe it should be "audio/ape" from windows 7 mime db.

I am I correct? if so can we add support for APE files to DLNA/UPnP please?

Also what about DTS encoded data steams can they be added as well "audio/dts"
and again for AC3 encoded files "audio/ac3"

Even if MM can't play them "natively" this would allow them to be managed by MM but
stream played to my AMP or XBMC etc (then to my amp :-) ) via UPnP/DLNA

regards
JB
