Re: [slim] SC7 - can't re-enable FLAC->MP3 (win)

2008-03-05 Thread MrSinatra

i had 6.5.5

i have since installed 7.0

when i installed 7.0 it uninstalled 6.5.5 but apparently it left behind
some SS dirs, including the one with lame.exe in it.

i do not have lame.exe in any SC dir.

however, like u guys it says it appears to be correctly installed.

so...

is this a bug?  or is it just seeing lame.exe in the SS install or
somewhere else on my system?

is a bug filed?

I'm seeing the same thing.  Must be a bug.

Sorry - I'm not being clear.
It indicated that lame was correctly installed -before- I'd copied
lame.exe in.
Or does "installed correctly" mean something different? I imagine it
could...

Yes, that's right.  On the players where you don't want transcoding to
mp3, just set Bitrate Limiting to 'No Limit'.  

You might also double-check that under Server Settings > Advanced >
File Types you haven't disabled Flac streaming as both Flac and Wav. 
If you disable both, then the only thing left is to transcode and
stream as Mp3.

No, it's just telling you that LAME is installed correctly on the
system in case you want to user the bitrate limiting.

Oh - OK.
Copying lame.exe to that same directory certainly made that error
message go away.
Thanks!

BTW, I turned this off all those beta versions ago because I wanted to
be sure the server wasn't transcoding.
I -assume- that I can control this through Settings/players/player
name/audio - and then set a rate in the "Bit rate limiting" field. Do I
have that right? Anything else I need to do to make sure my hardwired
boxes don't get transcoded streams?

That player/audio panel has the string -The LAME encoder appears to be
installed correctly on your system.- directly below the Bitrate
limiting field. Seems a trifle counterintuitive if it then needs
installing...

Lame.exe is required to do the mp3 conversion from flac, but you have
to install it yourself.  If this was working in the past then you must
have deleted lame.exe at some point or else you installed a fresh
version of the server and forgot to reinstall it.  Place lame.exe into
the same folder where you found flac.exe.

[slim] SC7 - can't re-enable FLAC->MP3 (win)

2008-03-05 Thread bobkoure

I'd turned the FLAC->MP3 conversion off some beta builds ago.
Now, when I try to turn it on in Settings, I get
-Required binary was not found: lame for flc-mp3-*-*-

Adding FLAC->WAV works fine.

When I search C:\Program Files\SqueezeCenter
- there's a flac.exe
- there's no lame anything (but this could be under a different name)

Any thoughts?
Thanks!
