To play WMA files under Pcp 7.0.0 you need to:
1) Install the Play Windows Media LMS plugin
2) Install the pcp-ffmpeg.tcz Extension
In addition, if you have any embedded jpgs in your WMA files (e.g. album
covers), you will need to edit the custom-covert.conf file installed by
the Play Windows Media Plugin, which you can find in
/usr/local/slimserver/Cache/InstalledPlugins/Plugins/PlayWMA for Pcp
7.0.0.
The reason you need to make the edit is that by default when converting
WMA to Flac, ffmpeg will convert any embedded jpgs to png format. The
version of ffmpeg installed in Pcp 7.0.0 doesnt support jpg to png
conversion and so the WMA to Flac conversion fails. The solution is to
add the -nv option so that only the audio is converted. You need to
change the Flac conversion in custom-covert.conf from:
Code:
--------------------
[ffmpeg] -v 0 -$START$ -i $PATH$ -f flac
--------------------
to:
Code:
--------------------
[ffmpeg] -v 0 -vn $START$ -i $PATH$ -f flac -
--------------------
