"Changes in headers but not samples can produce audible differences, at least on some systems that are sensitive to things that, in an ideal world, they should not be sensitive to."I have wondered about that before, but don't recall seeing anybody discuss it, so just assumed it wasn't important and just one more thing to not be concerned with.
Do you have any more discussion of this, offhand? Don't go to a lot of trouble as I will look for it myself, but if you recall anything (link, etc.)...thanks.
I do my audio-file assembling on a machine that's remote from the actual file player, so all the player sees is the .wav data *plus* the ethernet packaging headers. They're still headers though, in the sense of data that isn't representing audio. I don't think this is the type of thing you were referring to, as the data extraction scenario is different since the player app doesn't even "see" the header.
Edit: I am specifically speaking of my SB Touch setup here, not the BDP1/BDA1 setup which *could* be susceptible to the exact header thing you're speaking of.
