How to get iTunes to play FLAC


Scanned the web and Agon and cannot find any definitive method of achieving this with HD FLAC files

Found one suggestion but it only handled 16/44 - I would like 24/192

I am streaming from an iMac, using iTunes as the interface because my droid app "Retune" controls it from my tablet

I have installed Audirvanna and I like it's integration with the iTunes/Retune setup

Has anyone found a method of playing 24/192 FLAC from within iTunes that would not conflict with my current setup - without having to convert the files to some other format like AIFF?

Many Thanks

Apple only supports their rip-off version of FLAC, ALAC. Get something like dbPowerAmp and convert the FLAC files to ALAC or AIFF...
No can do...this is why I cant use itunes. You have convert to another format. No idea why Apple wont support flac.
JRiver should have their Apple version ready soon, it's currently in Beta and by all accounts is already working very well and sounds superb.

JRiver blog and download (you can follow progress there).

The Win version is terrific, better sound than others we've compared to. I will be installing JRiver on my Mac Mini and looking forward to not having to depend on iTunes wonky rules and limited format choices (not to mention bad sound).

JRiver will allow Apple to play FLAC, Apple Lossless, Wav or whatever you have. It's less expensive than Channel D and Amarra, both of which I own and JRivers has an application to operate remote with iPad, iPhone and other devices.
