Re: [slim] Anyway to get an SB1 to work with 24bit FLAC?

It seems SC only transcodes based on sample rate so if the files sample rate is 44.1k and the player is capable of playing 44.1k no transcoding takes place. I had a similar problem with SoftSqueeze as it can play 44.1k sample rate files but not any bit rate higher than 16. SC ignores this

That looks like it should work (changing softsqueeze to squeezebox1). I don't think the 'D:{RESAMPLE=-r %d}' in my example is required as it isn't used but I left it in, things worked, and I have not touched it since! I don't know what you would need to do for replay gain as I'm not sure where

Re: [slim] Anyway to get an SB1 to work with 24bit FLAC?

So now that SC has SoX support builtin will SC automaticly downconvert the FLAC files to a format the player can support? Also if you have a mixed player setup, say a SB1 and a SB3 and they are synced will it downconvert for both or just the one that needs it? Thanks -- m1abrams

[slim] Anyway to get an SB1 to work with 24bit FLAC?

Well I am surprised I had not run into this before but I guess I never played any tracks that were 24bit encoded on the SB1 until recently. So I was wondering if anyone has a solution to either setup SC to transcode them to 16bit or if not that just not let the SB1 play them. The high pitch

Re: [slim] Anyway to get an SB1 to work with 24bit FLAC?

The problem is that the SB1 needs the FLAC transcoded to either WAV or MP3 to play. No idea if command line arguments can be added to convert.conf to reduce the bit depth of the output for the SB1. -- funkstar funkstar's
