Thanks @bpa.
When I had LMS transcode the files it always worked. And since the same
files play fine on my SB Radio, I also assumed that the cause is a bug
or shortcoming of Boom's firmware.
Anyway, I found a fix! Strangely though, I still don't know what
actually causes Boom to crash.
I had a look at the files with `ogginfo` and found that the files that
make Boom crash have tags with mixed upper and lower case characters.
For example:
Code:
--------------------
$ ogginfo 01__la_lega.ogg
Processing file "01__la_lega.ogg"...
New logical stream (#1, serial: 0f769573): type vorbis
Vorbis headers parsed for stream 1, information follows...
Version: 0
Vendor: Lavf54.20.4
Channels: 2
Rate: 44100
Nominal bitrate: 192.000000 kb/s
Upper bitrate not set
Lower bitrate not set
User comments section follows...
date=2015
title=La Lega
artist=Italian Partisans
album=Live
genre=Folk
TRACKNUMBER=01/13
encoder=Lavf54.20.4
--------------------
Once I used EasyTag to change and hence rewrite the tags, Boom can
handle the files. `ogginfo`'s output afterwards:
Code:
--------------------
User comments section follows...
TITLE=La Lega
ARTIST=Italian Partisans
ALBUM=Live
DATE=2015
TRACKNUMBER=01
TRACKTOTAL=13
GENRE=Folk
ENCODER=Lavf54.20.4
--------------------
I am not sure whether really the fact that mixed case tags were used was
the cause. It could be some other problem that happens to get resolved
when I rewrite the tags.
But at least I can play my files now again natively with ogg! :-)
