[slim] AIFF files don't play, why?

2006-09-14 Thread octavian

Why don't AIFF files play on the Squeezebox or Softsqueeze? I have them
selected in server settings. This is posted on the audiophile forum but
no response.

potentially many reasons.  AIFF is native, so it shouldn't be due to 
any trancoder.  but, you should check the server
settings-file types, just to make sure you haven't accidentally 
disabled the type.  depending on the server version (which you haven't 
supplied)
you may need to check the setting for file types to ignore while 
scanning (though since you are able to try to play them, it's very 
likely not the problem.


Also go to server settings-debugging, check d_source then open up 
http://serverip:9000/log.txt.  When you try to play the track, that 
window will show you
the steps that the server is taking in order to play the track. it may 
show errors there.  Last step, run command line in case there are any 
system errors involved that are too low level to make it into a server 
log.
