You might be on to something here. There're some issues with the faad file.
1) When I ran the file under command prompt, i get a "The system cannot execute the specified program." message. 2) The file size of the faad.exe is 253KB. The latest version of faad2 that I have has it at 392KB Maybe the file size has nothing to do this as it could be use a different version but it seems strange that I'm unable to run the faad program in command prompt. I have no problems running the other files in the same directory (like flac.exe, alac.exe, etc) I did try to copy in the faad version that I had to replace the current one that is not working but things didn't turn out any better. While I can now run the faad.exe (April 28 version), I still can't get any AAC file to play. This is the new log with the working faad.exe -- [09-03-18 01:56:09.3592] Slim::Player::Song::open (302) file:///D:/shares/Music/iTunes/iTunes%20Music/Mika/Life%20In%20Cartoon%20Motion/01%20Grace%20Kelly.m4a [09-03-18 01:56:09.3797] Slim::Player::TranscodingHelper::checkBin (260) couldn't find binary for: lame [09-03-18 01:56:09.3801] Slim::Player::TranscodingHelper::getConvertCommand2 (455) Error: Didn't find any command matches for type: mp4 [09-03-18 01:56:09.3805] Slim::Player::Song::open (323) seek=false time=0 canSeek=0SEEK_ERROR_TYPE_NOT_SUPPORTEDmp4 [09-03-18 01:56:09.3816] Slim::Player::TranscodingHelper::getConvertCommand2 (458) Matched: mp4->flc via: [faad] -q -w -f 1 $FILE$ | [flac] -cs --totally-silent --compression-level-0 --ignore-chunk-sizes - [09-03-18 01:56:09.3820] Slim::Player::Song::open (340) Transcoder: streamMode=F, streamformat=flc [09-03-18 01:56:09.3837] Slim::Player::Song::open (457) Tokenized command "C:\Program Files\SqueezeCenter\server\Bin\MSWin32-x86-multi-thread\faad.exe" -q -w -f 1 "D:\shares\Music\iTunes\ITUNES~1\Mika\LIFEIN~1\01GRAC~1.M4A" | "C:\Program Files\SqueezeCenter\server\Bin\MSWin32-x86-multi-thread\flac.exe" -cs --totally-silent --compression-level-0 --ignore-chunk-sizes - | [09-03-18 01:56:09.3945] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_Stream (991) 17:d9:de:3c:ae:6b: stream [09-03-18 01:56:09.3955] Slim::Player::Transporter::play (124) Setting DigitalInput to 0 for [file:///D:/shares/Music/iTunes/iTunes%20Music/Mika/Life%20In%20Cartoon%20Motion/01%20Grace%20Kelly.m4a] [09-03-18 01:56:09.3960] Slim::Player::Transporter::setDigitalInput (204) Switching to digital input 0 [09-03-18 01:56:09.4037] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_Stream (1021) Song queue is now 0 [09-03-18 01:56:09.4042] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_setPlayingState (1854) new playing state BUFFERING [09-03-18 01:56:09.4046] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_setStreamingState (1867) new streaming state STREAMING [09-03-18 01:56:11.5626] Slim::Player::Source::_readNextChunk (499) end of file or error on socket, song pos: 0 [09-03-18 01:56:11.5631] Slim::Player::Source::_readNextChunk (508) Didn't stream any bytes for this song, so just mark it as played [09-03-18 01:56:11.5636] Slim::Player::StreamingController::playerTrackStarted (1673) 17:d9:de:3c:ae:6b [09-03-18 01:56:11.5640] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_setPlayingState (1854) new playing state PLAYING [09-03-18 01:56:11.5644] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_Playing (359) Song 0 has now started playing [09-03-18 01:56:11.5655] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_Playing (388) Song queue is now 0 [09-03-18 01:56:11.5661] Slim::Player::Source::_readNextChunk (515) 17:d9:de:3c:ae:6b mark end of stream [09-03-18 01:56:11.5671] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_setStreamingState (1867) new streaming state STREAMOUT [09-03-18 01:56:12.0351] Slim::Player::StreamingController::playerEndOfStream (1763) 17:d9:de:3c:ae:6b [09-03-18 01:56:12.0355] Slim::Player::StreamingController::_setStreamingState (1867) new streaming state STREAMOUT -- Kardtoon ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Kardtoon's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15208 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=60571 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
