Like Triode said, the software players and SBC do not have native
support for WMA. Therefore transcoding is needed.
>From your log, the transcoding framework finds two possible conversion
commands for a wma source:
Code:
--------------------
[wmadec] -w $FILE$ | [flac] -cs --totally-silent --compression-level-0 -
[wmadec] -w $FILE$ | [lame] --silent -q $QUALITY$ $RESAMPLE$ -v $BITRATE$ - -
--------------------
The problem is that these will only work for local files, not remote
streams, because wmadec can only read from a real file, not a pipe.
If you had AlienBBC with mplayer properly installed, then you should
find the following rules from Alien's custom-convert.conf should have
precedence over the default wmadec-using rules:
Code:
--------------------
wma wav * *
# F:{PATH=%f}R:{PATH=%F}T:{START=-ss %s}U:{DURATION=-endpos %w}
[mplayer.sh] -really-quiet -vc null -vo null $START$ $DURATION$ -cache
128 -af volume=0,resample=44100:0:1,channels=2 -ao
pcm:nowaveheader:file=/dev/fd/3 $PATH$
wma mp3 * *
# F:{PATH=%f}R:{PATH=%F}B:{BITRATE=-B %B}T:{START=-ss
%s}U:{DURATION=-endpos %w}
[mplayer.sh] -really-quiet -vc null -vo null $START$ $DURATION$ -cache
128 -af volume=0 -ao pcm:file=/dev/fd/3 $PATH$ | [lame] --silent -q $QUALITY$
$BITRATE$ - -
wma flc * *
# F:{PATH=%f}R:{PATH=%F}T:{START=-ss %s}U:{DURATION=-endpos %w}
[mplayer.sh] -really-quiet -vc null -vo null $START$ $DURATION$ -cache
128 -af volume=0 -ao pcm:file=/dev/fd/3 $PATH$ | [flac] -cs --totally-silent
--compression-level-0 -
--------------------
You do not seem to be using these rules, so I suspect that you do not
have them installed.
I have noticed, however, that these rules sometimes have problems with
certain URLs, for example file paths with spaces in. I presume that
this a problem with the argument-requoting in mplayer.sh. That said,
these mplayer wma rules work fine for me with BBC wma streams.
