Hi bpa Just to let you know I decided to rebuild LMS & downloaded the latest image from max2play & all is now well with HiRes playback :-) Just need to reconfigure it now :-( Thanks for your help!

Re: [slim] 24bit 96 khz flac support?
I got my Odroid up and running max2play Ubuntu 14.04. Didn't go through the max2play registration etc but downloaded the LMS verison of flac and sox for both soft and hard float and the transcoding chain worked without any problems even with 5.1 flac files. The flac version was 1.2.1 and sox was 14.3.0 and 14.3.1 (difference between hard and soft float. File sizes soft float flac 458856 hard float flac 420428 soft float sox 2745048 hard float sox 2458116 You could download and replace sox and flac from LMS using these URLS https://github.com/Logitech/slimserver/raw/public/7.9/Bin/armhf-linux/sox https://github.com/Logitech/slimserver/raw/public/7.9/Bin/armhf-linux/flac Use wget to download and then "chmod +x" to make downloaded file executable bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83055 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [slim] 24bit 96 khz flac support?
Reviewing some of the posts. Assuming trasncode chain works OK and you can record from plughw:0 from a shell prompt.The issue might be permissions. Some distros require user to belogn to group such as audio to access some hardware since LMS is being run by a different userid perhaps it does not have required permissions. Check difference in group memberships between the user id you run the arecord and the userid which runs LMS. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83055 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Not necessarily VLC takes the approach to try at all costs to play a file sometimes ignoring "standards" while LMS uses the "flac" decoder which is rigourous and only play file that conform to flac standard.

Using "FLAC Frontend" all the files "test" OK. Also the Christopher Tree file that JJZolx linked to earlier wont play either but also tests OK.

What actually happens during playback? Do you get noise or nothing at all? In the web interface, does the progress bar advance or stay at zero?

I've managed to get similar output to yours with an invalid Flac file. Your post say the file is a 192Khz sampling rate - you seem to think it is 96Khz ? Is it 192kHz 1 channel rather than 96Khz 2 channel ?

I just tried it myself and get much the same log output. Looking in more detail - The "D" and "T" option are related to trying the "-" rule (i.e. no processing) which fails because player needs downsampling. It seems to point back to either the flac or sox on the system don't work properly or the file is not compatible with the flac app and/or LMS requirements. These possibilities can be tested easily from a shell script prompt. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83055 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Two earlier failures stating D or T capabilities not supported. D means convert.conf transcode rule says "can Downsample" and T means " can start time offset" Both T & D errors are strange and usually means the convert.conf file has been edited or a custom-convert.conf is overriding the default. The entry should look like the following but space are critical and extras/fewer spaces tabs can break the rule. Note the proper rule as T and D capabilities.

The log has a number of attempts when there should only be one - so I'm not sure whether LMS is having serious problems or whether you tried to play multiple file. Did you try multiple times ? If so please just do one file as asked and save in a plain text file not a word doc. However, there is one occurance where LMS builds a command line and tries to run it.

Good question. :) It's a 24/96 file. I have the Transporter synced with a Radio. If I unsync the Transporter, it doesn't resample.

Re: [slim] 24bit 96 khz flac support?
I'm playing an album in 24/96 on my Transporter right now and it's being downsampled. If you want to debug it a little you can enable debugging for conversions from the web interface by going to: Settings > Advanced > Logging > (player.source) - Player Source Audio & Conversion Logging and seetting it to 'Debug'. When I do that, I see this in my log file: [16-02-08 16:21:45.5661] Slim::Player::TranscodingHelper::getConvertCommand2 (446) Matched: flc->flc via: [flac] -dcs $START$ $END$ -- $FILE$ | [sox] -q -t wav - -t flac -C 0 $RESAMPLE$ - This means it's using the Flac program to decode the flac file and then SoX to re-sample and re-encode. Perhaps those programs aren't installed on your system?

Re: [slim] 24bit 96 khz flac support?
Thanks everybody Looks like I'm up for an upgrade very soon, as I have many 24bit/96khz albums. Can someone tell me which SB player is more suitable for hi-fi use when you're sitting about 3 meters away from it (this is why I don't think I need the Touch feature' since I'll only be using the remote) Thanks -- EB1000 EB1000's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=40973 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83055 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

You don't have to use the Touch interface, as it comes with an IR remote and similar remote capabilities of the older players. However, not too many people find the screen as usable from a distance as the screens on the SB Classic and Transporter. -- JJZolx JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83055 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] 24bit 96 khz flac support?
+1 The Touch it is, it comes with ir just like the SB3 . (and can be controlled by controllers smatphones web interfaces et al just like the SB3). Soundquality is said to be improved and it can stream 24/96 to a suitable DAC. It can also play those files trough it's own 24/96 Dac But people with severe audiphilia seems to use external DAC's that includes me ;) When You are using the ir control it uses bigger text than in Touch mode. And you may have to tilt it forward to get a good viewing angle depending on placement, but it's still not as visible as the old SB3. But on the other hand it has screen savers with cover art . It also has the possibilities to run it's own small server and play directly from an USB drive, but I would not bet the farm on that this works to anyones satisfaction, your own server will still be the best way to use this player. And squeezeboxes multiply you will probably find another room for the SB3 :) -- Mnyb Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH and assorted amps SiriuS, Classe' Primare and Dynadio speakers, Contour 4 Contour Center, and Contour 1.3SE rear ch.

[slim] 24bit 96 khz flac support?
Hi I just noticed when I play a 24bit/96khz flac file on my SB classic' the file info says that the bitrate was changed from 1387kbs to 704kbs.. what gives? can the SB classic output a true 24bit/96khz pcm signal from a flac file through the spdif digital output? or does it downscale it to 16bit 44.1khz?

Re: [slim] 24bit 96 khz flac support?
It's downscaled to 24/48 the 704kb info is bogus a cosmetic bug that nobody fixes. 24/192 and 24/96 is downscaled to 24/48 24/172.4 and 24/88.2 is downscaled to 24/44.1 Note that a squeezebox always output 24bit at 100% volume so 16bit sources are padded to 24bit, this is withing the spdif standard, older dac's discards the extra bit's . -- Mnyb Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH and assorted amps SiriuS, Classe' Primare and Dynadio speakers, Contour 4 Contour Center, and Contour 1.3SE rear ch.

Re: [slim] 24bit 96 khz flac support?
No, the Squeezebox Classic doesn't support 96kHz playback. Only the Transporter, Touch and Radio do. So the server downsamples the 24-bit/96kHz material to 24-bit/48kHz. It makes sense that the streaming bitrate would be approximately halved when going from 96kHz to 48kHz. The bitrate reported is always the streaming bitrate, by the way, not the bitrate of the actual material. So a CD compressed using Flac, for instance, where the audio is originally 1411 kbps is reported at the compressed rate, usually somewhere around 50-70% of that. -- JJZolx JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83055 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
