I don't see SoX running (which it wouldn't if LMS wasn't invoking it),
but the total load on the CPU -- except at the very start of play when
it jumped to around 79% for a couple of seconds -- has been running at
around 15% or lower. A lot of the time, it's at more than 90% idle.

If you use top command do you see it running and is the PI chocked at
100% CPU ?

That's good , wandbord is quite powerfull , so if current PI has power
Hi NightFly,
on my Pi sox is here
/usr/share/squeezeboxserver/Bin/arm-linux
and the converter settings are here:
/etc/squeezeboxserver
I never touched those settings though ...

I saw on another thread that you had (have?) problems with wifi setup on
the PI. I'm running the PI with two of those

Well, SoX is on my system (big surprise, since it is the SqueezePlug

O.K., I've got SqueezePlug (sort of) running on a Pi with LMS. I want to
configure SoX resampling, which currently doesn't seem to be working (or
isn't installed at all?). At this point, I'm lost. In what directory on
the Pi would I be able to find a) the LMS config files and b) SoX (if
Günther, have you tried mounting the share you are using with
iocharset=utf8 set in the mount options? eg.
Code:

Hi Jack (?),
as mentioned I ended up using ntfs-3g filesystem on the USB HD. It is
mounted on the PI through
Code:
UUID=98869E72869E509C /mnt/hd1/ ntfs-3g rw,user,auto,locale=de_DE@euro 0 0
I don't know if this is the smartest way to do it -
Hi Nightfly,
Tags are not a problem - the file/folder names are. I always make sure,
that the tags are correct - but simplify the file names (Tag: P!nk,
Folder: Pink). This can be done quite automatically through tools - I'm
using Bulk Rename Utility which has a mode to remove accents.

It certainly isn't possible in my case, as I have several thousand
albums already tagged -- including lots of German classical music.

I set up a RasPi exactly for the scenario you have in mind. Initial fill
(and maybe regular syncs of larger chunks of data) through USB and usual
access from windows through a samba share. SqueezePlug is definitely a
very good starting point for this.
Different character sets, however, caused
I'm not expecting super-performance from the Pi, just better capability

capabilities of the pre-installed Squeezebox Server -- no way to upgrade
