In the Settings > Advanced > File Types dialog (which I had forgotten about), I tried toggling "Prefer native format (decoding on the player) whenever possible". It made no difference that I could detect, even in interaction with the next thing I tried. THEN I TURNED \"FILE FORMAT: FLAC STREAM FORMAT: FLAC (I,F)\" TO DISABLED. NOW THE CHOPPY FILE PLAYS FINE. https://imgur.com/a/fJw5iSX I confess I don't really understand the UI here. The UI seems to say "Don't stream FLAC files in FLAC", yet what I'm apparently actually doing isn't very clear. And if I get debugging going, I find out what's actually happening: Code: -------------------- [21-12-17 10:56:15.9068] Slim::Player::TranscodingHelper::enabledFormat (235) Checking to see if flc-flc-*-* is enabled [21-12-17 10:56:15.9071] Slim::Player::TranscodingHelper::enabledFormat (243) There are 1 disabled formats...
