Ah, ok. Thank you. So I lifted that transcode entry, and just stuck it in custom-convert.conf: Code: -------------------- root@waffle:/etc/squeezeboxserver# cat custom-convert.conf flc flc * * # IFT:{START=--skip=%t}U:{END=--until=%v}D:{RESAMPLE=-r %d}E:{NOSTART=I} [flac] -dcs $START$ $END$ --force-raw-format --sign=signed --endian=little -- $FILE$ | [sox] -q -t raw --encoding signed-integer -b $SAMPLESIZE$ -r $SAMPLERATE$ -c $CHANNELS$ -L - -t flac $RESAMPLE$ -C 0 - -------------------- That then give me an additional entry for FLAC under File Types, with the new one reading "flac/sox" for the Decoder. I enabled that one, and disabled the original one. I left "Prefer native format" checked. Here's what that looks like: https://imgur.com/a/HkqiywT This is the solution I really wanted, although again, the simple disable described above gets you AIF (PCM) output, and that's probably fine too. I double checked the logs, and it appears to be doing what I want now: Code: -------------------- 21-12-17 14:56:52.7168] Slim::Player::Song::open (472) Opening stream (no direct streaming) using Slim::Player::Protocols::File [file:///mnt/ManzanitaMusic/MusicLibrary/2021/2021-12%20(Dec)/Jessy%20Lanza%20-%20DJ-Kicks-%20Jessy%20Lanza%20(2021)%20[FLAC]/CD1/09.%20Foaming%20(Mixed).flac] [21-12-17 14:56:52.7177] Slim::Player::Protocols::File::open (80) duration: [193.607] size: [18728199] endian [] offset: [0] for file:///mnt/ManzanitaMusic/MusicLibrary/2021/2021-12%20(Dec)/Jessy%20Lanza%20-%20DJ-Kicks-%20Jessy%20Lanza%20(2021)%20[FLAC]/CD1/09.%20Foaming%20(Mixed).flac [21-12-17 14:56:52.7181] Slim::Player::Protocols::File::open (97) Opening file /mnt/ManzanitaMusic/MusicLibrary/2021/2021-12 (Dec)/Jessy Lanza - DJ-Kicks- Jessy Lanza (2021) [FLAC]/CD1/09.
