File sort of looks OK. You didn't show the "File Format" but the screen shot shows enough (i.e file type = alc)
Tags seem to be read OK by LMS. >From the log it looks like player is not capable of native ALAC or native ALAC is disabled. So ALAC is being transcoded into Flac and since ALAC may be hi-res - the ALC->FLC transcode rule is set up to use sox so that it can resample if necessary The resulting transcode command looks OK as resampling part of sox is not "active" Code: -------------------- "/Library/PreferencePanes/Squeezebox.prefPane/Contents/server/Bin/darwin-x86_64/faad" -q -w -f 1 "/Volumes/Big iTunes/Music/Gillian Welch/Revival/04 Barroom Girls.m4a" | "/Library/PreferencePanes/Squeezebox.prefPane/Contents/server/Bin/darwin-x86_64/sox" -q -t wav - -t flac -C 0 - -------------------- So time to verify that faad can really handle the problem files. Can you check this command works from a Terminal Code: -------------------- "/Library/PreferencePanes/Squeezebox.prefPane/Contents/server/Bin/darwin-x86_64/faad" -w -f 1 "/Volumes/Big iTunes/Music/Gillian Welch/Revival/04 Barroom Girls.m4a" >testoutput.wav -------------------- It should generate a wav file called testoutput.wav . The "-q" option is removed so I think it will generate log output to stderr. Try the same command with good/bad file instead of "04 Barroom Girsl.m4a" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113049 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
