Re: [slim] Announce: Whitebear Media Server v2.2 Released
I doubt that this was ever possible; even in prior versions. Basically WMP can only stream (Play To) tracks to other media renders (such as Whitebear/LMS) that are in one of WMP's own *native* formats (e.g. pcm, mp3, wma, wav). The Shark add-ins do allow WMP to play tracks locally within WMP but they do not help WMP to stream those formats to other 3rd party players using the Play To command (don't ask me why). This is a weakness of WMP and/or the Shark add-ins, and is not the fault of Whitebear or LMS. But that's the thing: I've been playing local FLAC files for the past 3-4 months with no problems whatsoever (I could even play AAC etc, but there were problems with moving from one track to the next, WMP would cause the same AAC track to be replayed over and over). All of a sudden it stopped working following the 7.7 upgrade. I'll try to downgrade to see if I can play them again and do some track rescans. I'm also pretty sure that the file format of SBS's FLAC files in the WB library was FLAC rather than PCM, although not 100%, since I mostly use WB to play local files of my laptop to the Squeezebox. -- Wigster Wigster's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14899 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=90842 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

As far as artists are concerned, SBS has a separator character for multiple items so if a track has a complex artist tag like fredsjoe (where s is the separator character) the scanner will split that tag into two artist entries in the database. Does the SBS scanner handle complex genre tags in the same way, using the same separator character? Or does a track with a complex genre tag like rocksclassical remain unsplit as a single entry in your SBS database? If the SBS scanner treats complex genre tags in the exact same way as it treats complex artist tags, then it is a trivial matter to implement multiple genre entries in the Whitebear UPnP ContentDirectory. But if complex genre tags have a different handling than complex artists tags, it would require Whitebear to somehow read your mind about your chosen personal encoding scheme for complex genre tags... -- AndrewFG Regards, AndrewFG Try out Whitebear.

Re: [slim] Announce: Whitebear Media Server v2.2 Released
Wigster;683359 Wrote: All of a sudden it stopped working following the 7.7 upgrade.You are probably getting mixed up here. There are two cases: Case 1) if you have a control point that can serve native flac, then Whitebear sets things up between SBS and the control point so that SBS gets the track direct from the control point i.e. Whitebear plays no role in actually moving the data. Case 2) if you have a control point that can only serve pcm, then Whitebear sets things up so that Whitebear becomes a transcoding proxy between SBS and the control point, whereby Whitebear gets the track from the control point in pcm format, and serves it to SBS as flac. The reason for this double proxy transcoding approach is that pcm is the must support format of UPnP, but SBS does not support pcm (at least not for remote streams). WMP can only serve lossless streams in pcm so case 2) is _always_ used when WMP does Play To a SBS player (by Whitebear). And the reason why case 2) won't work anymore with SBS v7.7 is that the developers messed up something concerning x-audiocast-bitrate headers. Grrr! I am developing, with the help of )p(, an update of Whitebear to work around this v7.7 issue. However in the meantime downgrading to 7.6 should see you right, until my update is released. -- AndrewFG Regards, AndrewFG Try out Whitebear. The middleware that joins the two worlds of: 1.

if she syncs to your server you get two streams, I don't think lms can diff between local or remote players.

You can ofcourse bitrate limit her players so she don't play 24/96 WAV files over the net :) Or just bitrate limit the radio, when synced lms is bound to use the stream both players can use so it will be the mp3 one .
