Tried work around and tried from SB with no luck. I also moved up to the 3-24 nightly and have a new problem with AlienBBC. I get no errors in log with --d_plugin but in softsqueeze display I get a flash of "rtsp convert error: check file types" It does not play ie. in the web UI when you click play and it refreshes and play is not selected. I am not at home but through the web interface I tried to play an Alien stream through a SB player at home and get same results ie. Press play and get no error or indication that anything is happening in the logs (good or bad)and when web UI refreshes play is not selected. I looked at the file types and they are set the same for 3-24 as they are for 3-20. I also tried selecting and unselecting the rtsp and wav file types and it made no difference.
With the 6-20 nightly I get no sound but when I press play it actually stays on play and mplayer and lame fire up and run.. but no sound comes out. Same results for web UI and SB. After disabling wav->flac I get this as part of log. _________________________________________________________ Launching mplayer -really-quiet -vo null -cache 128 -af resample=44100:0:1 -ao pcm -aofile /dev/fd/3 rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk/england/radioleeds/grooves.rm MPlayer 1.0pre5-3.4.2 (C) 2000-2004 MPlayer Team CPU: Sun Sparc Reading config file /opt/etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf: No such file or directory Reading config file //.mplayer/config Reading //.mplayer/codecs.conf: Can't open '//.mplayer/codecs.conf': No such file or directory Reading /opt/etc/mplayer/codecs.conf: Can't open '/opt/etc/mplayer/codecs.conf': No such file or directory Using built-in default codecs.conf.

Not sure if that is an issue. If you know the command I can run it and give you the output.

I changed the server settings and still no sound but no flac error either. That was with SoftSqueeze. I'll try SB when I get home.

I'm so close now... I get no errors at startup via --d_plugin I see the plugin in the web UI and SB. I get to the part where you press play and this is what I get. ________________________________________________________________ Launching mplayer -really-quiet -vo null -cache 128 -af resample=44100:0:1 -ao pcm -nowaveheader -aofile /dev/fd/3 rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk/bbc7/0800_sun.ra?start=%2201:15:00%22 binmode() on unopened filehandle GEN52 at /usr/share/src/SlimServer_v2005-03-20/Slim/Player/Pipeline.pm line 119. /usr/share/src/SlimServer_v2005-03-20/Bin/sun4-solaris/flac: unrecognized option `--totally-silent' MPlayer 1.0pre5-3.4.2 (C) 2000-2004 MPlayer Team CPU: Sun Sparc Reading config file /opt/etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf: No such file or directory Reading config file //.mplayer/config Reading //.mplayer/codecs.conf: Can't open '//.mplayer/codecs.conf': No such file or directory Reading /opt/etc/mplayer/codecs.conf: Can't open '/opt/etc/mplayer/codecs.conf': No such file or directory Using built-in default codecs.conf.

(206 chars) ________________________________________________________________ I checked the flac options and it does not have an option --totally-silent just a --silent. When I look in Pipeline.pm at line 119 I can't make any sense of it, mainly due to my lack of programming skill:) Also when looking at the AlienBBC FAQ. It talks about transcoder_proxy.pl. The thing is I don't have one. I searched hi and low and no go. I'm wondering if its an old FAQ compared to the new way Mr.Tickle is doing things. I checked for port 5123(from Alien BBC FAQ) listening and I don't have that either. Is the proxy still being used? If so what starts it? Do I need a special codecs.conf or is the default ok.
