Yes, the server also needs to be configured to support transcoding to mp3. You probably need to install lame which doesn't come with LMS. You can find Details under "Settings->Player->Audio" in the LMS web interface. @Michael, if you are reading this: the MP3 patents have now expired for a few years, wouldn't it make sense to ship lame with LMS? --- learn more about iPeng, the iPhone and iPad remote for the Squeezebox and Logitech UE Smart Radio as well as iPeng Party, the free Party-App, at penguinlovesmusic.com *New: iPeng 9, the Universal App for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51929 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
