Hi all,

I use BruteFIR to implement a binaural headphone sound using Head
Related Transfer Functions (HRTF). Since I am using my headphone
allways with the same SB, I wrote a custom-convert.conf with the MAC
address of this box specified.

Now, according to the convert.conf comment (see below), the more
specific rule entry in the custom-convert.conf should take precedence
over the standard entry in convert.conf:

# This example transcodes MP3s to MP3s, if the target machine has the
# given MAC address.  This rule will take precedence over the
# previous rule because it's more specific.
#mp3 mp3 squeezebox 00:02:dd:34:e9:62
#       ./brute_filter $FILE$ -

My "more specific" custom-convert.conf entry is:
flc flc * 00:04:20:06:7a:08
[flac] -dcs --force-raw-format --endian=little --sign=signed 
--skip=$START$ --until=$END$ -- $FILE$ | [brutefir]
/etc/slimserver/.brutefir_hrtf 2> /etc/
slimserver/brutefir.log | [flac] -cs -0 --totally-silent
--endian=little --sign=signed --channels=2 --bps=24
--sample-rate=$RATE$ -


The related FLAC entry in the convert.conf is:
flc flc * *
-

But when "FLAC"->"FLAC" usning "native" is activated, I hear the
unfiltered music in my headphone-SB. Only when this entry is "disabled"
it gets filtered. 

Interestingly, when I enable FLAC->WAV by choosing "flac" in the "file
types" page, the priorisation works as intended. But I don't want to
stream WAV to my SBs in order to reduce WLAN bandwith consumption.

Is this a bug? Any hints?
Cheers,
Hering

PS: I am using SqueezeCenter now, but if I remeber correctly,
SlimServer 6.5.4 had the same issue...
