Just to not disappoint you, we are working on support for strong-encrypted tracks, so we hope we can support your HiMD as well in future. Regarding ATRAC3+. It's true that ffmpeg cannot decode ATRAC3+ files to date, however, Michael forgot to mention that there is already some reverse-engineering of ATRAC3+ going on and the guys from ffmpeg are actually looking to start implementing it. So, in both cases, we just have to be more patient ;). Adrian
