Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: Material Skin
Hi On Mac the 'Show current track info' has 3 columns - Artist Bio, Album Review, Lyrics, this looks good when all 3 are populated but sometimes it can't find Lyrics or Album Review leaving the Artist Bio and a large space to the right. Could there be some way Maximise/Minimise each column as required or be able to drag the divider/slider to fill the screen?

Can you try the Linn test album in CD Quality ALAC, I get the clicks/pops with this one, the 96 and 192 versions play ok. It seems from my (limited) tests that the issues are with 44.1K files, anything over plays fine Ade_AV's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=69532 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110011 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

The good news with the Custom Squeezelite build is it is now playing every alac file that ffmpeg couldn't The not so good news is that I'm getting clicks/pops on a lot of tracks, maybe every 10 seconds or so Ade_AV's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=69532 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110011 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Squeezelite/Picoreplayer not playing a lot of ALAC files
Hi I'm having the same issue and it appears that piCore/ffmpeg does not like files unless artwork is embedded correctly as jpeg, so anything with png embedded will not play, also artwork embedded from e.g. Google Images via drag/drop to iTunes will not play. If I remove the artwork in iTunes then re-add as a jpeg then all is well Is FFmpeg the only option to play alac natively? What about Squeezelite with alac built in?
