Transcode m4a to a Sangean WFT-1 ?

I'm sorry for a real newbie question here, i'm so happy how Serviio just works perfectly with all my mp3's!

I'm trying to figure out how to make a transcoding profile for a Sangean WFT-1 (Radio/internet radio/media device). my efforts don't work at all.

I'm on a Mac (10.7.3) and i'd love all those .m4a's to show up (transcoded) on the Sangean - not only the .mp3's ... Thing is when i edit the profiles.xml and restart (the computer)
the Serviio will not even start...

Need very basic aid i'm afraid! Sound only...

Best regards
Joakim Wendel

I should have added that all works perfectly fine with the xbox360 profile, i just can't make a Sangean profile...

Could you post your edits so far please? There could be a typo somewhere in your edits causing the rest of the file not to be parsed?

Xbox360 profile works for almost all files so i'll definately use that as base...

I'm happy with the Xbox 360 profile and now i at least understand what it can't do for me...
Aiff files

For the Aiff files i tried to simply add
(Generic DLNA)
<MediaFormatProfiles>
<MediaFormatProfile mime-type="audio/aiff">Aiff</MediaFormatProfile>

And to the XBox profile
<Audio targetContainer="mp3">
<Matches container="aiff" />

But then the Serviio.app simply will not start, i remove the edits and it starts!
