i'm also beginning to think this is the route to take.

there are a lot of xmms plugins, and it'd perhaps be a good temporary solution to having support in ffmpeg for stuff like musepack and shn, etc. etc.

well shn support isn't exactly a high priority no matter how it's done as less than 25% of users actually care about it...

fyi, it may not belong before ffmpeg has shn support according to this (link) and once ffmpeg support it mplayer will soon support it hifty: ...and then later xbmc

[theonlyone]

i researched in the faq, but was unable to find if shns are able to be played in the xbmc. does anyone know how to do this or if it's possible?

thanks in advance!!

[sizzlechest]

you probably should convert it to ape or flac. it's probably smaller than shn anyway.

[jmarshall]

not yet.

if you could search out some decent shn decoding sourcecode i'm sure someone will take a look at it at some stage (i have a bunch of shows in shn for instance)

cheers,

[jmarshall]

thanks to a generous donation of a nice shn dll, we now have shn support

enjoy,
jonathan

wowza! that's great! i've been waiting for shn and flac support for a while.

flac was really shakey for awhile an d now it seems to work perfectly and with the addition of ape and shn... things are lookin good for my live music collection
