Thank you for the suggestion, but that didn't actually work for me. For
some reason I got multiple copies of faad running with that and
SlimServer's cpu jumped to 90+%. In the end after a litlle searching
through the new convert.conf for ideas I came up this setup that is
working for me.
mov flc * *
[faad] -w -f 2 $FILE$ | [flac] -cs --compression-level-0 --endian
little --sign signed --channels 2 --bps 16 --sample-rate 44100 -
Now when streaming aac files to SoftSqueeze direclty as flac I see about
11% CPU (6% slimserver, 3% faad & 2% flac). That's down about 20% from
what used to go towards reencoding with lame.
Thanks again...
