I just noticed that under More Info on my Squeezebox's menu my files
look like they are being transcoded to a different bitrate. It will say
something like:
Bitrate: 800kbps VBR (Converted to 700kbps ABR)
I have FLAC set to native, no bitrate limiting etc
Any idea why this is happening?
It's just saying that the peak bitrate is 800 and the average is 700.
Nothing to worry about - it's not transcoding.

You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it
ain't what you'd call minimal...

Ok. Sounds strange to me but... Unusual wording considering no
conversion is going on. I also don't recall ever seeing it look like
that in the
If you see converted it does mean it's transcoding. Can you post a
player.source log?

Sure, if I can figure out how to create one. :) I have now set
player.source to debug but where am I supposed to see the resulting
log?

Ok, it seems I have found the issue. I installed Inguz recently and
even though I have the EQ set flat it still does something with the
files. If I disable all of the Inguz stuff in the FLAC section of the
File Types page there is no longer any conversion going on. Haven't
tested all of my
It's most likely just doing FLAC - Filters - FLAC, so you're still
playing FLAC but obviously not the same FLAC as you started with, as you
asked Inguz to mess with it :)

Absolutely, my fault. I just assumed that if I set the Inguz EQ to
flat that it wouldn't mess with
