Ok, I had to try this. I tested it using the Sheffield/XLO Test &
Burn-in CD, which has channel and phase tests. Worked like a charm.
What was interesting is the second track is a relative phase test. The
in-phase part worked normally, but the out-of-phase test was completely
silent.
Create a file named custom-convert.conf in the same folder as
convert.conf and restart Squeezebox Server. I only tested the first
rule, with is for standard 16/44.1 Flac streaming, which normally
streams natively. The second rule is used for downsampling high bitrate
Flac files for players that can't play them natively. Of course, this
assumes all of your files are Flac. You'd need additional conversion
rules for other types of files.
Code:
--------------------
flc flc * *
# FT:{START=--skip=%t}U:{END=--until=%v}
[flac] -dcs $START$ $END$ -- $FILE$ | [sox] -q -t wav - -t flac -C 0 -
remix 1,2
flc flc transcode *
# FT:{START=--skip=%t}U:{END=--until=%v}D:{RESAMPLE=-r %d}
[flac] -dcs $START$ $END$ -- $FILE$ | [sox] -q -t wav - -t flac -C 0
$RESAMPLE$ - remix 1,2
--------------------
I'm not sure how much overhead this adds to the server, but with 10
streams you probably want to test it first.
