[slim] Re: Fast Forwarding not working. Ideas?

2007-01-17 Thread ceejay

Because the various player types have different capabilities, and you
might have more than one connected to your server.

Each player type has a set priority order - for an SB3 for example FLAC
is top of the list - so that's what SS will send it if allowed.  An SB1
however can't play FLAC so has a different first choice.

So for a given input type, the server looks down the player's priority
list and serves up the first one that it finds which is allowed in the
configuration table.

Thanks ceejay, unchecking AIFF - FLAC did the trick.  It didn't FF or
REW very smoothly and so I've decided it really isn't a high priority,
so I think I'll just stick with Apple Lossless with no FF/REW ability.

Just to experiment, I also unchecked Apple Lossless - FLAC to see what
would happen and as expected FF and REW still didn't work with  Apple
Lossless files but there was also a noticable pop between tracks.

So I've returned everything back to the way it was and all is well
again.  Life is full of compromises!

Thanks again.

Probably because in Server settings/file types the server is set to
transcode both of those types to FLAC, which would stop ff/RW working.
Uncheck the boxes for AIFF to FLAC and WAV to FLAC.

Thanks ceejay.  I think I'm confused as to what is really going on there
with those settings ... why is the same format selected multiple times? 
How does the SlimServer then decide which one to use?  Aren't we just
telling SlimServer which format to convert the file TO before it is
streamed to the SqueezeBox?
