At the moment all the perl modules in the official repository are following the philosophy ""if it works don't touch it". While sometimes this may work I don't really share this pov. Because when something will start to not work anymore, since it will be severly outdated, it will be a real pain to fix it. Due to this a made a fork here https://github.com/simonefil/slimserver-vendor and updated pretty much all the perl modules used by LMS (and, Q.E.D., it has been a real pain). In the next days I will update also the source for the binaries used, faad2 included. (Both on github and in the FreeBSD package) For a very quick fix while I work on the update, to be able to listen to ALAC files you just need to edit the conver.conf files and change the transcoding lines for ALAC in this way: For alac -> wav Code: -------------------- alc pcm * * # FT:{START=-j %s}U:{END=-e %u} [alac] $FILE$ -------------------- for alac -> mp3 Code: -------------------- alc mp3 * * # FB:{BITRATE=--abr %B}D:{RESAMPLE=--resample %D}T:{START=-j %s}U:{END=-e %u} [alac] $FILE$ | [lame] --silent -q $QUALITY$ $RESAMPLE$ $BITRATE$ - - -------------------- for alac -> flac Code: -------------------- alc flc * * # FT:{START=-j %s}U:{END=-e %u}D:{RESAMPLE=-r %d} [alac] $FILE$ | [sox] -q -t wav - -t flac -C 0 $RESAMPLE$ - -------------------- https://audiodigitale.eu ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Simonef's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=67438 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113909 _______________________________________________ Squeezecenter mailing list Squeezecenter@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezecenter
