Hi Indexit,

Note:  The most up to date version of my instructions are on my blog
at:

Now, regarding your question:

I haven't done this yet, but I think this involves two steps:

1) On the squeezebox server settings, under "File Types", force the
server to decode all FLACs to WAV files.  You probably already have
this working.

2) Create a rule for flac-to-pcm in the custom-convert.conf file like
the following:

flc pcm * *
# F:{FILEnTIME=%f
%t}T:{START=--skip=%t}U:{END=--until=%v}D:{RESAMPLE=-r %d}
[flac] -dcs $START$ $END$ -- $FILE$ | perl
d:\local\gdir\Audiotools\convwrapper.pl [sox] $FILEnTIME$ [sox] -q -t
wav - -t raw -L -e signed -C 0 $RESAMPLE$ - 

Note that I'm guessing at the some of sox parameters that you'd need to
use here (e.g. "-t raw -L -e signed" v.s. "-t flac" to force sox to spit
out the right format of PCM for squeezeboxen.  I would play around and
see what works.

Hopefully this helps!

George
