Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] LMS 7.9.3 on MacOS 10.11.6 does not play some ALAC files
Squeezelite v1.9.1-1139 IO::Socket::SSL: 1.966 OpenSSL 0.9.8zh 14 Jan 2016 MacOS 10.11.6 (last supported OS for that machine) Good track "Barroom Girls" converted just fine. Bad track "The Way It Goes" did not convert at all. Had to Control-c to stop it. The whole album "The Harrow & The Harvest" will not play via squeezebox. It's unfortunately not the only album I've discovered so far.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] LMS 7.9.3 on MacOS 10.11.6 does not play some ALAC files
File sort of looks OK. You didn't show the "File Format" but the screen shot shows enough (i.e file type = alc) Tags seem to be read OK by LMS. >From the log it looks like player is not capable of native ALAC or native ALAC is disabled. So ALAC is being transcoded into Flac and since ALAC may be hi-res - the ALC->FLC transcode rule is set up to use sox so that it can resample if necessary The resulting transcode command looks OK as resampling part of sox is not "active" Code: "/Library/PreferencePanes/Squeezebox.prefPane/Contents/server/Bin/darwin-x86_64/faad" -q -w -f 1 "/Volumes/Big iTunes/Music/Gillian Welch/Revival/04 Barroom Girls.m4a" | "/Library/PreferencePanes/Squeezebox.prefPane/Contents/server/Bin/darwin-x86_64/sox" -q -t wav - -t flac -C 0 - So time to verify that faad can really handle the problem files. Can you check this command works from a Terminal Code: "/Library/PreferencePanes/Squeezebox.prefPane/Contents/server/Bin/darwin-x86_64/faad" -w -f 1 "/Volumes/Big iTunes/Music/Gillian Welch/Revival/04 Barroom Girls.m4a" >testoutput.wav It should generate a wav file called testoutput.wav . The "-q" option is removed so I think it will generate log output to stderr. Try the same command with good/bad file instead of "04 Barroom Girsl.m4a" bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113049 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

The version of the squeezelite player is usually shown on the LMS information page (LMS => Settings => Information). Close to the bottom of this page there is a section "Player Information" with information about players that are connected with LMS. For example, following information is shown for my piCorePlayer: Player Model: SqueezeLite Player Type: squeezelite Firmware: v1.9.7-1278-pCP In this example the version of Squeezelite is v1.9.7-1278-pCP | LMS 8.0 | Squeezebox Boom | RPi0W + pCP 6.1.0 + HiFiBerry DAC Zero | SqueezeAMP | CJS's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=68700 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113049 ___ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter

Is Ubuntu 20.04 the same as 'focal' ? If so, it does seem to be included in Ubuntu's -dpkg-. Refer: https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/dpkg. Which raises a question: how did your system end up with a link to -/bin/true - ? Is this a known Ubuntu behaviour that is, perhaps, caused by something else ?
