Playing large aiff file

[simoncn]

2 GB of audio data encoded as 24/192 would play for 31 minutes and 4 seconds, so it seems that something is stopping playback after 2 GB of audio data. This is not a MinimServer limitation but might be a limitation of your control point or renderer. Another possibility is that the internal structure of the file has the audio data length encoded as 2 GB even though the physical file size is greater. MinimServer uses the internally encoded audio data length if it is less than the physical file length.

I have a test AIFF file that is 2.7 GB in length. I tried to play this file with mconnect on my Android phone to see if it plays to the end but I got a message saying that the file format is not supported. I tried other AIFF files and got the same message. I am away from home at present and I will try this using mconnect on my iPad when I return home.
