That generates output.flc:

*pi@raspi:~ $* cat "/mnt/pihdd/Audio/Music/John Surman/The Brass Project
(1993)/02. Coastline.mpc" | "/usr/bin/mppdec" --silent --prev --gain 2 -
- | "/usr/share/squeezeboxserver/Bin/armhf-linux/flac" -cs
--totally-silent --compression-level-0 >output.flc
*pi@raspi:~ $* ls out*
output.flc

These are the current permissions/owners/groups:

-RWXRWXRWX 1 ROOT ROOT 170024 MAR 23  2016 /USR/BIN/MPPDEC

-RWXR-XR-X 1 ROOT ROOT 327308 AUG  3  2009
/USR/SHARE/SQUEEZEBOXSERVER/BIN/ARMHF-LINUX/FLAC


What should they be set to?

Many thanks for your continued patience & help -- much appreciated.
