This coincided with me going from using the LMS Perl install via SSODS to using Synology's own Package following a NAS upgrade.
I noticed on -Settings - Advanced - File Types- that AAC was ticked as "Native". As the Duet cannot decode AAC natively I changed that to disabled and then in -Settings - Advanced - BBC iPlayer- ticked the "allow transcoding" box (which was unticked) and restarted LMS. This was clearly still not working, however, as LMS was still dropping back to using the WMA stream rather than transcoding the AAC. I had read somewhere that the Synology package does not use Squeezebox's version of FAAD, so I downloaded the Linux installation file from the Mysqueezebox web site and unzipped it to a temporary folder. I looked at the FAAD from the LMS Bin folder and it was 470KB compared to the Synology one which is 49KB. Quite a difference! So I copied the LMS FAAD file over the Synology FAAD (after taking a backup of course) and restarted LMS. I am glad to report that it is now transcoding 128kbps CBR AAC to 700 kbps FLAC. The sound quality is tons better! Thought it worth reporting this in case somebody else has the same problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ TheLastMan's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16021 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=53229 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
