Is there an answer to this question? I'd like to stream WAVs as well.

Before you post a reply telling me why I don't need to stream uncompressed audio, read the following list. The reasons below will not dissuade me:

  1. You don't need WAVs. You can't tell the difference between WAVs and MP3s anyway.
  2. Change your MP3 bit rate to make it higher.
  3. WAV streaming will saturate the network.
  4. WAV data is too large for the Receiver to properly buffer it at the client side.


because:

  1. I do. I can.
  2. Re-encode all ~5000 tracks? No freaking way man.
  3. Nah. CD-quality (44.1kHz stereo) audio is roughly 173KBps. Even a degraded HPNA2 network providing say 500KBps throughput can handle a few streams like this. 100Mbps EtherNet certainly wouldn't suffer.
  4. Nah. At 173KBps, it would only take 865KB to buffer five seconds of audio. I believe WinAmp's default streaming buffer (for compressed ShoutCast streams) is only two seconds. I can't imagine the Receiver would be unable to come up with a 346KB buffer... I could be wrong.
