I'm trying to configure FLAC files to run on Slimserver. I'm using slimserver on my WinXP pc at home and then access it via softsqueeze and openssh at work.
The mp3 files run without any problems ( I had to change the Softsqueeze player at my work to a bitrate of 96Kbps to ensure a continous music stream ). However my library also contains FLAC files. When I play these they become interrupted/choppy. I don't believe there are settings to change the bitrate for the FLAC files so I did some checking in the Server / File Formats section to see if FLAC was enabled. It was for my SB3 but while at work I want to stream my FLAC files from the Softsqueeze player. To enable this I believe I had to select FLAC / MP3. When I did the above I get the following error in SlimServer. "Required binary was not found: [flac] -dcs --skip=$START$ --until=$END$ -- $FILE$ | [lame] --resample 44100 --silent -q $QUALITY$ --abr $BITRATE$ - -" So after getting this error I thought that my server didn't have the correct files to run the FLAC files from the server. I downloaded the latest LAME files and placed then in the Slim Server directory. But this error still happens. Is there a posted file/FAQ somewhere as to how to configure the FLAC LAME files on a Softsqueeze player being driven from my Slim Server?
