Have you put LAME in the right place?
In SlimServer help - Frequently Asked Questions -
"Where do I put the lame, oggtools or other
transcoding programs?"
"Under Windows, they should be placed in the
C:\Program Files\SlimServer\server\Bin or the
C:\Windows folder.
On the Mac, you can place executable programs in
your Library/SlimDevices/bin folder, or in the
system path.
Under linux they should be placed in the system
path. That probably means /usr/local/bin. Most rpm
packages will take care of that for you."
Also to get bitrate limiting going you do not
necessarily have to use Server Settings - File
Types, you should go to Player Settings - Audio -
Bitrate Limiting. This will also tell you if it
has found the LAME encoder, "The LAME encoder
appears to be installed correctly on your system."
