Alternative approach.

The following steps will enable the output from ecasound to be seen
including error messages.   

1. Edit the custom-convert.conf file and remove the "-q" from the
ecasound lines.

2. Get a shell prompt (e.g. Open a console window). Set the console
window size to be say 300 chars wide and 3000 lines down.

3. CD to the server directory of your SC installation.

4. Type ./slimserver.pl when in the server directory and SC should
start. Depending on the installation and permissions you may need to
have additional parameters such as user and prefsdir such as 
./slimserver.pl --user squeezecenteruser --prefsdir /etc/scprefs

5. Set logging player.source to INFO.

6. Start the WaveInput such as by using Tune-in to wavin:default or
playing a predefined Favorite

7. Output from logging and ecasound should appear on console. 

8. After sufficient logging has been output - Stop SC and copy log
message from "./slimserver.pl" to shutdown.

Successful ecsasound output from start to shutdown will look something
like
