The player with firmware 40 is a SB1 which cannot play AAC natively and cannot play Flac so AAC is transcoded into 48KHz PCM which has no header so SB1 plays it has 44.1Khz. I'm not clear what you are talking about wrt Spotty as this a BBCiPlayer thread. That is the problem and has been true for all files & stream 48kHz AAC on SB1 - not just BBCiPlayer and known for a long time ( http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?6405-48KHz-playback ) AFAICT no solution has been posted over the years. The only solution I can think of is to add sox in the "AAC-> PCM" trasncoding for SB1 to ensure a 44.1kHz but this will put a load on the LMS processor. No details on your LMS server - so the following is for a Linux based server. If lines below are edited to use correct MAC address (i.e. replace with AMAC of your SB1) and then saved in a custom-convert.conf file (make sure tabs are saved as tabs and not spaces) in the same directory as the LMS convert.conf file then after LMS restart LMS will always convert AAC streams to the device with MAC address into 44.1Khz streams. MAC address of player can be found in LMS WebUI Setting/Information tab or on label of player. Code: -------------------- aac pcm * aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff # IF [faad] -q -w -f 1 -b 1 $FILE$ | [sox] -q -t wav $FILE$ -t raw -r 44100 -c 2 -2 -s - -------------------- In theory for all SB1 type devices - the following would work. Code: -------------------- aac pcm Squeezebox * # IF [faad] -q -w -f 1 -b 1 $FILE$ | [sox] -q -t wav $FILE$ -t raw -r 44100 -c 2 -2 -s - -------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108717 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
