An intelligent and observant approach, but unfortunately it did not
work.  Neither deleting the -w entry nor changing it to -v had any
effect, which may confirm your theory that it's a non-functioning
parameter.  Regardless, thanks for digging deep enough for the
suggestion, if anything else occurs please let me know.  And if I get a
solution elsewhere I'll pass it on just to satisfy your curiosity.

JohnB, your edit worked for ALAC files, marvelous!  Thank you very much
for that.
I was not able successfully to bypass one of the players: deleting the
section for the player's mac address caused squeezebox to generate a new
section for that player in the custom convert file.  And adding # in
front of each line didn't seem to make a difference.  But that is really
a minor hurdle-- being able to process ALAC has made the plugin usable
for me for the first time, which is a major benefit.

What do you think about the Spotify streaming?  The stream identifies as
OGG Vorbis, and there are Inguz DSP entries in file types for OGG Vorbis
converting to FLAC, but Squeezebox doesn't seem to be transcoding it. 
For whatever reason the DSP doesn't process the stream.  If you have a
theory let me know, but otherwise thanks again for the help.

[slim] Inguz EQ w/ 7.7.5 help?

2016-01-11 Thread blscorp

Running a Duet setup with two players (sync'd), LMS 7.7.5 and have Inguz
successfully installed.  Need EQ only, not DRC.  I've scoured these
boards pretty thoroughly for info but some big issues remain and am
trying to get some firm current answers in one place.

- File types:  My library is made up of mp3 and ALAC files, and I stream
Spotify.  So far I've got the DSP working only on the mp3s.  Anyone got
ALACs working (have to use custom conf files)?  Spotify (even
possible)?

- Strange boosting behavior when cutting frequencies:  On the mp3s where
the DSP is usable, I noticed that cutting frequencies seems to result in
a compensating BOOST in the rest of the spectrum, as if there were a
normalizing or compression effect on the signal.  As a test I created a
preset in which I cut every band 12db (did a 3-band version and a 9-band
version).  The result is LOUDER than a flat setting, rather than
dramatically softer.  WTF?  Thought replay tags/Track Gain might have
something to do with it but I've set the players to "No Volume
Adjustment" and the issue persists.  Very strange, and kind of a
dealbreaker unless I can resolve, as precise or subtle adjustments
become impossible if pulling one lever in effect moves all the others in
a way not shown or acknowledged by the UI.

- Player isolation:  The inguz website info is pretty unequivocal that
customizing different players/rooms is impossible-- the plugin is
applied in the server and streamed identically to all players.  But some
(not so recent) posts I've read seem to indicate that you can edit
custom conf files in such a way as to apply the eq to one player and
bypass the processing on another.  This would suit me beautifully,
assuming that both the affected and unaffected players could still
stream in sync and share crossfade and replaygain volume settings.  Any
wisdom there?

Thanks in advance for any advice!
