I got no response in one of the other forums, so I will try here. Hello I have a new install of slimserver and, by-in-large, everthing is working as expected and it is great software !
My local collection of music files is made up of both .mp3 and .ogg files. Some of the best I have is saved at a nominal 320 kbps .ogg files. As I understand my setup, lame is being used to convert this file to a .mp3 stream "on-the-fly" as it is being served. I can change it to a lower bit rate, for example, 128 kbps, for better streaming over the internet. I can also control the lame setting from 0 (slowest, best quality) to 9 (fastest, lowest quality). The problem is that when I play the served files locally, I get just noise ! However, if I play .mp3 files that need no conversion, I get good sound. I suspect slow processor as a possible cause. My machine is a 1 GHz AMD Athlon. I am running Linux/Ubuntu/Breezy. Any help appreciated. -- freelsjd ------------------------------------------------------------------------ freelsjd's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4344 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=21747 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
