FLAC support in custom ROM?

[Guest zycamaniac]

I'm just wondering when will this format be supported in custom ROMs that chefs are cooking up, any ideas on the possible time when this will be supported?

Speaking personally, I'd be glad to have this support and just the mostly stock 2.000.5 ROM. Since I'm actually liking the stock launcher and setup quite a lot. :) Originally I'm pretty annoyed with the customized app from the service provider that sells Acer Liquid in Taiwan (FarEasTone, or FET), but with the new leaked ROM having none of those customized app, and improved touch screen smoothness, I'm already pretty thrilled. (I sometimes use hand writing input method, and with the old jerky touch screen, it can get pretty aggravating at times. B) )

Thanks

Yeah, I found this post:

does this change require having kernel source? I'm no ROM chef, I don't really understand what he's talking about, but it looks like the code to play FLAC on android is checked in to source control.
