Feature Request: Ability to add codecs

**fatejd** · 10-20-2006, 09:32 AM

Not sure if this is already a "feature", but IMO it would give much better expandability in the future if you could allow the user to add his own music codecs to be supported in the player. There will most definitely be more codecs in the future that will be much better than the ones we have now and maybe some people like one more than the other (FLAC vs. WAVPACK comes to mind right now), so it would just be easier for both the developer and the user to allow the user to add their own codecs, at least that's the way it seems to me.

Thanks

you can add video codecs all day long by editing the config.xml and adding the extension, before make sure the files playback in WMP...

Audio codecs have to be setup and supported by the base system... It supports most all formats right now and as new ones come out, updates will be made available...
