[QUOTE="seddotje, post: 896293, member: 117441"] Possible Answer thanx toastysken for helping me a long way. I was having the same problem with iTunes. playing most over airtunes, but some not. I started looking at the extensions of the files of those that didnt work. None were .mp3 Some were saved as .mp4 (MPEG) instead of .mp3 (Quicktime). Still this didnt explain all the files. .flac is an extension used in the music industry which keeps the quality of the songs. its uncompressed. itunes wont play this, unless you install Fluke and add the files through fluke to you library. all of these files can not be played over itunes and will have to be converted too. Its a pity, but makes sense too. The data to be send (the files are 10x the mp3 size) to the airport would be immense. Hope this solves it for all. If not, post it! [/QUOTE]
