Rather than "play" around changing items without a rational basis - please take time to understand the process. arecord take input *from *the ASLA device and copies it *to stdout* aplay take input *from stdin* and copies it *to *the ALSA device - there is no output to stdout swapping arecord for aplay makes no sense - they operate differently one is a source, the other is a sink. The line "-traw" means output in raw format - there is *no* WAV header to be adversely affected. > The slimserver id is the same as the id I'm using when using PuTTY.

After you make a change - when testing the change - confirm that the change is taking effect . Did you look at the running processes to check that process with Arecord also has the "tee" ? alternatively before testing enable player.source logging to INFO and after testing look at the "Slim::Player::Song:: open (xxx) Tokenized command:" entry in server.log 2. When you decided to use PCM rather than Flac - did you disable the use of the "wavin flac" under WebUI Setting/Advanced/FileTypes ? 3. You are using PCP for LMS - I don't use PCP so don't know the details but it runs out of RAM. Often, this means any changes to files (which will be on a RAM disk) must be backup up onto the sdcard to that they are restored into RAM on next system startup. Have you checked whether this is necessary for plugins ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49584 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
