The files are sent, over my network, to the receiver, which plays them. It's the Yamaha Android app for my receiver. It generally works well, except it won't play oggs. It will list them, but the text is a bit dimmer than an mp3 file. The app is quite nice. I can turn on the receiver from my tablet, select sources, adjust the volume and more, even though the receiver is in another room. It also allows my phone or tablet to be a "media server".
Mmm. Yes, if the files are served to the receiver, it is this which has to to the decoding. Otherwise, the tablet would do the decoding and just sent the decoded audio to the speakers, typically over bluetooth. In this case, you can just change the player app in the tablet - for example, to VLC. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
