What is the logging setting in LMS that can be used to see the actual
command-line used in transcoding? If I set
(player.source) - Player Source Audio Conversion Logging
to Debug, all I see (transcoding FLAC to MP3) in my server.log is:
Code:
[14-11-06
For me, this service would need to be less ambitious than the Logitech
one. When I started with the Squeezebox Touch, I used mysqueezebox.com
a fair bit as I used a music database on my PC and that wasn't always
switched on. Now, I'm using a Squeezeplug, the database is always on so
all I'm now
I tried setting all of the available logging settings to Debug and still
didn't get the actual command-line in the log. I could have sworn that
this was logged at one time in the past. Could it be added to 7.9?

Thanks. I see it now. Confused because it appears in the log file well
before the end of the found conversion statements. I figured it had to
be at the end.

Yes, I just discovered that, too.
Need to clarify something:
Are non-native formats transcoded to and streamed as FLAC under the
default server configuration? That was my understanding, but is it
universal for all formats?

If you have LMS running I believe the 3rd party Spotify plugin by Triode
might do what you want.

I've read the audio quality of the Raspberry Pi isn't great, many guys

The question I have is, how is the audio quality of a Raspberry Pi

there?

I only want the Classic to display information - and NOT to play audio.
Is there any way to achieve this?

Not that I'm aware of. Unfortunately, if it was the opposite, you could

There is no way. The SB3 doesn't have a UI that works independent of the
audio state so it only shows track information if it's also playing a
track and that doesn't work.
Maybe you could get around it through LMS and the MusicInformationScreen
plugin but then you could just as well just install

I agree--but onboard HDMI is not that bad, imho. But since I only run a

The thing is that the LMS server transcodes to the classic , so it must
be capable of handling lossles flac around 750kBps or PCM .
What's the sever running on ? And if the server also are on wifi it
could get a bit weird .
