Rip all of the lossless files to a seperate location (ie. don't keep them in your itunes library) and then set up slimserver to use that location, rather than having slimserver use the itunes library. -- chaz chaz's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2802 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=30761 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

[slim] AARGGGHH Crash City!
Recently I'd upgraded to 6.5 and all was fine for a while til I started to try and get it to read the album art downloaded by Itunes 7.0. I couldn't get this to work and then started to see some really wierd issues with the way 6.5 was organizing things after some rescans and adds to my library. So I decided to go back to 6.3. After my initial install and library scan in 6.3 all was great and it even imported all the artwork downloaded by the new version of Itunes so I was a happy guy. I didn't do much else with it and went out for a few hours When I got back, slimserver had crashed...and I couldn't get it to start back up. I've tried sever re-installs, and it never quite finishes scanning my library before it crashed out again. The only way I can get it to run again is either re-boot or re-install and then it just crashes out again eventually after a few minutes. I've never had any problems with slimserver, other than a bug here and there. Now I can't even get it to run.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. Disabling the AIFF FLAC and AIFF MP3 didn't help. After looking at bug #2095 I'm pretty sure that that is the issue I'm having. This does not affect all files I rip using apple losslessand on the cd's that are affected even then not all the tracks have this issue. But one thing that is sure is that if a track has the problem it ALWAYS has the problem. And playback in Itunes is flawless (except that it's in Itunes!). I've been using one particular cd as the guinea pig for this issue. When I rip it using 320 KB aac or mp3 or as wav files there's no problem at all with playback. Gildahl, I'll try ripping it as AIFF and see if that has any problems. Is this a lossless format as well? And thanks again for all the help people.
