Hi there, Ogg Vorbis problem: I’m a Squeezebox newbie running 5.4.1 on a 250GB
Buffalo LinkStation (thanks SO much to Marc D. Field
for his project notes http://fieldnetworks.com/slim/linkstation.html
and plenty of post-project help, nice chap and patient!) but I have one problem
– I can’t play my Ogg Vorbis
files. When I try from the Squeezebox/SoftSqueeze
it starts saying it will play the file and then comes back with a message
saying ‘Can’t Open File’. When running SlimServer software direct
from the LinkStation via HTML on my Windows XP PC and
I try and select the Ogg Vorbis
options (Server Settings/File Types)I get the
following error: "File Format Conversions 10: Setting was
changed. File Format
Conversions 11: Setting was
changed. Required binary
was not found: [oggdec] -Q -o - -R $FILE$ | [lame] -- resample 44100 -q $QUALITY$
--silent -b $BITRATE$ -r -x - - Required binary
was not found: [oggdec] -Q -o - -R $FILE$" This
happens whatever version of SlimServer I download
(5.4.1, 5.4.x or any of v6.0) although it was never a problem when I originally
installed SlimmServer & ran it from my PC can
someone help please? I’ve
scanned as much as I can and I think it has something to do with the convert.conf file but where do I find this and how do I
edit it? (I’d appreciate a
real idiots guide (keystrokes file locations etc. as I’m
a novice - even though I’ve installed new LinkStation
Perl versions and created files and utilities in ‘vi’!!) All
my music is in Ogg Vorbis
so this is really important to me. BBC
Radio Is
there any way I can stream BBC radio (specifically 5 Live) to my Squeezebox
through my LinkStation? I read that creating an m3u file would do
the trick but a) I don’t know if I’ve created the file correctly
and b) I don’t know where to install it to test it – anyone tried
this? Thanks
for any help with the two issues. Kind
regards, Alan. |
