The only "flc flc transcode" workaround I can find for "IFT" with "skip" uses ffmpeg to skip and resample but then it needs flac to re-encode into Flac. Not a good solution. I think tdlflc provides the required flexibility. As a side note - I noticed that WebUI Settings/Info/Filetypes does not

Couldn't the problem happen with any flac file, as long as some flac compression mode is being used? That's correct. But if it's your own, you got the freedom to re-encode it. Maybe we could detect that level? Unfortunately this seems not to be possible. I googled around for it, but all I'v

It has nothing to do with 6.0.0, but an old install that used an older LMS. If you started with a fresh 6.0.0 image, and installed LMS,it would have the same problem. And if you modified convert.conf, it likely will not survive a reboot. Put that lined of code in a text file, and upload it v

I think I have reproduced the problem. I think it is not due to 6.0 vs 6.12. 6.0 player h/w does not require resampling but 6.1 does require resampling. My 8.0.0 was a little old but transcoding/resampling worked OK. I updated to latest and it is now broken. So issues looks like not 6.0 - 6.1
