Hi, I was wondering if the minimum system requirements are determined for the FLAC decoder? I ask this because I have some old computers and also a "older" Pocket PC, so I was wondering how many MB RAM and Mhz CPU speed is needed to be able to decode FLAC files without any problems. thx -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

One of the key advantages of flac is that the decode is computationally simple. I used to decode FLACs on computers from the early 90s (that were so slow they had trouble with MP3 files) without problem.
