Thanks soooooo much for the wonderful work! Turns out that SB1 supports
WAV instead of PCM, all I had to do is change those two words and the
script worked... Just for the forum here this is what the final one
looked like. Pretty smart to use sox...
Code:
--------------------
xplay flc * *
# F:{PATH=%f}R:{PATH=%F}
[vlc] -I dummy --dummy-quiet $PATH$
:sout=#transcode{acodec=flac,channels=2,ab=128,samplerate=44100}:standard{access=file,mux=dummy,dst=-}
xplay wav * *
# F:{PATH=%f}R:{PATH=%F}
[vlc] -I dummy --dummy-quiet $PATH$
:sout=#transcode{acodec=flac,channels=2,ab=128,samplerate=44100}:standard{access=file,mux=dummy,dst=-}
| [sox] -q -t flac - -c 2 -t s2 -
--------------------
Regarding the VLC MP3 transcoding bug, here is more info about it (?).
Note this is for VLC Command line only bug.

The reason I am trying to setup 2 XPLAY plugins is these stations keep
changing every 6 months ;) mplayer ( with your -tcp change) is better at
opening rtsp streams. VLC is better at m3u8.. This way I have Xplay as
is working now using mplayer ( and I have few stations on it). For the
ones that need .m3u8 I would move them over to XplayV.
For example the same station 1, mplayer ( with tcp change) opens rtsp
stream, and VLC open the .m3u8 stream

rtsp://stream.lebanese-forces.com:1935/live/RLL/
But in the end, I am totally aware of your valuable time. If this is
work is for example going to the custom-types.conf and changing the two
names, then that is my hope. If it is involved, I think we are done, I
wasted so much of your valuable time already!! Many thanks!
