  • Not everyone can discern the difference between a 96KHz FLAC and 256kbps AAC. I can’t. But I still can (barely) tell the difference between 256kbps AAC, and 96kbps AAC.

    But I can tell if a song was well-engineered or a mess.

    I believe those who can’t discern the difference between bitrates (especially on high bitrates), but have the appreciation for good music, good mixing, and good mastering, can still be considered audiophile.







  • Not possible AFAIK, plus it will degrade the performance due to the latency etc, IMO it’s not feasible and not the best way if you want to leverage your GPU’s horsepower.

    You will need to keep the transcoding in the storage server, maybe the rest (a viewer, manager etc) you can move to the Turing Pi 2.

    But then, if it’s for a real time decoding, it’s not possible. Rather than getting an SBC like the Pi styled computers, consider getting something like a motherboard that has built in J4125 from Biostar which has a PCI-E slot and move your GPU to that Biostar mobo to handle all your media needs. And keep the storage server GPU-less.
