Some more thoughts and things to try out. 1. Testing WAV and FLAC may not be a good test as they may have been sent directly to SB. Try playing a WMA file with Windows Media builtin disabled.
2. I think the problem could be associated with loading QuickTime libraries as mov123 uses QuickTime libraries. Making sure SoftSqueeze and QuickTime (in the systray) are not running. Try to play one of your m4a file using Quicktime player - is there a delay ? If there is no delay then test is inconclusive as QuickTime could preload libraries. 3. If Quicktime is the common problem and not file access then you could try to use a different decoder such as mplayer. Here are the steps A. Download, unzip and install mplayer.exe in the same directory as mov123.exe. The link beow is for more recent build 1.0rc1 than in AlienBBC. Don't forget to make mplayer a trusted app. http://homepage.eircom.net/~altondsl/slim/mplayerrc1exe.ZIP After installing, from a cmd box try running mplayer and make sure you get a banner. B. Download, unzip and install custom-convert.conf in the same directory (i.e. server) as convert.conf. http://homepage.eircom.net/~altondsl/slim/custom-convert.zip C. Restart Slimserver and check that there are 4 Apple entries in Filetypes - mov123 handles AIFF - mplayer will handler and be checked for Apple WAV, FLAC and possibly MP3 D. Try an m4a file and if there is a delay post the log. 4. New version of debug socketwrapper - has a few more messages and the counters are fixed (they were stuck at zeo in previous version) http://homepage.eircom.net/~altondsl/slim/socketwrapper013.zip -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34181 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
