aac static problem with Mac 10.4.9 solved

I have finally solved the problem with hearing only static when playing
aac files.

The culprit was an itunes plugin call iWOW from SRSlabs. It works great
as an iTunes audio enhancer but kills the aac playback with the
slimserver. Simply removing it from the \library\audio\plug-Ins folder
on the mac completely fixes the problem.

LewisT, are you using iWow. If not it may be another audio plugin.
Please try it and see if it works for you.

2007-06-07 Thread joebarrett

I also tried re-installing quicktime and itunes with no success. I am
back to all AAC not working - just loud hiss/static.

Interestingly I get the same problem running slimserver (6.5.2/1) on
different machines. My Mac Mini and my Dual G5 box.

Help other mac users. Are others seeing this.

[slim] AAC files no longer play under Mac 10.4.9 - Just static!

2007-06-05 Thread joebarrett

Hello,
All of my AAC files no longer play. I just get static.
This happens with whatever version of slimserver I have tried.
(6.5.1,6.5.2, even my old and trusty 6.2.2)

I have tried changing the convert.conf file to comment out the mov
setting to allow AAC to MP3 Lame conversion but that has no effect.

I noticed this when I tried to play a new Apple DRM free AAC but then I
found all of my AAC will not play. MP3s are fine!

I am using Mac 10.4.9 and 6.5.1 slimserver.

It happens on both my SB3 and my old SB2 boxes.

Help

I have this problem as well. My AAC will no longer play.
I posted this in the general section before I saw this thread. Any news
on the cause of the problem?

Re: [slim] AAC files no longer play under Mac 10.4.9 - Just static!

2007-06-05 Thread joebarrett

Update.

Have re-done permissions and made sure that Quicktime/itunes and
security patched are all up to date.
Now I can get some AAC files to play. Interestingly they start with a
short burst of static and then play OK. Other AAC files just produce
loud static.
In both of the above cases the AAC are 128K CBR AAC (mpa) files. One
plays one does not. 

The new DRM free AAC files downloaded from iTunes do not play.

Very confusing.
