Since a downgrade install of SBS on an "old" windows system works, it means all the necessary files in SBS are OK. It also mean thje problem is - one or more of the necessary files cannot run - one or more of the necessary files are not allowed to run - network access is blocked for the files or traffic.
The "necessary" files are the SBS exe, faad.exe, flac.exe and possibly lame.exe if bit rate limiting. With regard to "files cannot run" - since SBS works and AAC files can be played it is likely that faad.exe and flac.exe are OK. However there is a slim possibility the M4A file you have downloaded is being transcoded by mov123.exe so you need to check (via logging with player.source swer to INFO) when playing the AAC file to see if faad.exe is being used. With regard to the streams being blocked - this is a security s/w issue but when transcoding with faad.exe, SBS does all the network access but still all the exe's need to be fully trusted by security s/w. It is possible that after a clean install then files have not been added properly to the necessary security "trusted" lists but with an existing install the files are registered properly with the security s/w. -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53229 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
