Thanks - addressing the queries/suggestions: - the files are generally ripped from CDs or converted (if needed) from high-res files by dbPoweramp (to suit the DAC in my active speakers) to a max of 48kHz/24bits. ALAC usually. - An example of an album that does not play on my PC or PiCorePlayer but does play on iPeng and my Android phone - ripped from CD - ALAC, 44.1kHz, 16 bit, 1,411 kbps. - Another example of one that does not play on my PC or PCP but does on iPeng and android is an unchanged download FLAC file/44.1kHz/16bit. - PiCorePlayer and my PC are all set up with the full codec set and both work with other files.. - for example - a CD ripped and (unnecessarily) saved as ALAC, 48kHz, 24bit, 2,304kbps works. - re: web interface - yes, I was referring to the timer. It does go on for >2 mins if I let it. - I've tweaked the logging settings and enclose the log file. 22:10:33 and soon after is when I tried to play the Thelonious Monk ripped CD (44.1/16) on my PC but it didn't. many thanks George +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: server (1).txt | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=24220| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kingswindsor's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=61926 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108411 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
