PROBLEM – the Apple Lossless files will not work when trying to stream to other machines via the Firefly iTunes Server. iTunes can see the files, but they refuse to play. Further investication led me to run the dbpoweramp m4a optimizer over all the files – as the optimiser “moving the meta data to the beginning, whilst optionally creating a hint track (used for streaming m4a over Apple Airtunes).” Unfortunately, this made absolutely no difference.

This should work. Not sure why it doesn’t right now, but I’m tracking it down. I’ve got a sample file.
