I would like Playlister to support .WAV audio format files when uploading media.

  Unfortunately, we’ve hit a technical roadblock with AWS that’s preventing us from implementing this feature at this time. The challenge lies in AWS’s handling of .wav file transcoding. Unlike more common formats like MP3 or MP4, .wav files require significantly larger storage and processing power. AWS’s current constraints mean we can’t efficiently process and stream .wav files without impacting overall performance and costs. We’re continuing to explore alternative solutions and keeping an eye on improvements in AWS’s capabilities. We’ll let you know as soon as we find a reliable path forward for supporting this file format.
