Recorder asked a question in Songbird on September 10, 2009 12:00:
Does Songbird 1.2 properly import iTunes 9 libraries?Apple has just released iTunes 9. Does Songbird properly import the music library from this new version? I don't want to install iTunes 9 if it will interfere with my use of Songbird!
I am particularly interested in the Mac version.-

I have been listening to AIFF files in SongBird 1.2 on my Mac for some time now. I rip them into iTunes and then import the entire iTunes library into Songbird. When I add new AIFF files to iTunes, I go to Songbird Preferences and re-import the entire library. It works fine. Last time I tried, using Songbird to pull in individual AIFF files, or folders with such files, did not work.
BTW, I find the sound to be superior through Songbird, compared with iTunes, at least on my system. That is the main reason that I use Songbird. -

I meant AIFF files, the type used in iTunes.
I have found, to my delight, that the problem with AIFF files, including 24/96 AIFF files, only occurs when I import the songs through the File/Import Media command. When I bring them in through "Import Library" in Preferences, they come in with full metadata and play perfectly. -

I just tried to bring some flac files recorded in 24/96 into Songbird, but they were dimmed out in the import dialog box. I tried changing the file extension from .flac to .fla, but that did not work. Are 24/96 FLAC files supported? I am running Mac OS X 10.5.4.
