Can someone confirm for me what the maximum MP3 bitrate is on BS4? I keep seeing the 128kbps figure for sources RECORDED FROM the BS4, but I haven't seen a definitive answer as to what the highest is it will play back if you add the MP3 files from a PC.

Which leads to my second question, which is really 2 in one... What is your favorite or recommended converter for converting Apple non-DRM AACs to MP3, and secondly, can creating the folder on the SD card and adding the songs be done from a Mac or must it be done from a PC with Windows? I suppose I could always just run virtualized Windows XP on the Mac if that's the case.

Thanks.

Are you using iTunes?

 Preferences > Import Settins > Choose MP3 encoder for Import Settings and set it to 320 (the highest)

For your second question, yes, you can use a Mac. Just drag and drop with Finder.
