I fortunately just stumbled over this thread after very nearly tearing out all my remaining hairs when my old Squeezebox V1 suddenly ceased to play BBC stations after I upgraded SC (V3 and SoftSqueeze were just fine).
I can confirm that nothing other than modifying custom-convert.conf will actually work (and what a sweet place to hide that file (sic)). Has this been reported to Slim as a bug? For it appears to me that $BITRATE$ is a token that should be replaced with whatever I configure in my bitrate limiting? I know that others in this thread *did not* set bitrate limiting. However, in my experience, this is required for anything pre-Squeezebox V2: my V1 never played the BBC "out of the box" - I always needed to throttle. Therefore, the player config for my V1 had throttling set to 128. >From this thread, it seems to me that this setting is not correctly substituted for $BITRATE$... -- ovonrein ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ovonrein's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2130 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=58441 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
