It may be a transcoding issue. What is the music format of your library, and what are the music formats that your renderer supports? If you are transcoding to, or from MP3 then you may need to download the LAME.EXE transcoder (e.g. from Rarewares) and save it into the Squeeze box server binary folder "C:\Program Files (x86)\Squeezebox\server\Bin\MSWin32-x86-multi-thread". csimon;573994 Wrote: > 2.

It tries to honour the Squeeze settings wherever it can. If your changes are not reflected, you probably have to get Squeezebox Server to do a "Clear Database and Rescan". One area where I admit to encountering a problem is the Squeeze setting "Treat multi disk sets as one"; the problem is that when you do this, the tracks of the merged disk are displayed sorted with all the track #1's followed by all the track #2's etc. which is not really user friendly. It does not support the custom browse menus at this time. )But that might be fun for a future release). -- AndrewFG Regards, AndrewFG http://www.whitebear.ch/mediaserver ------------------------------------------------------------------------ AndrewFG's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15838 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=80632 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
