Re: [slim] SB1 and 24bit flacs, how to configure LMS to downsample to 16-bit?

I have a follow-up question, these rules are based purely on file types, not file format/content. ie, I can't write a rule that says, "only do this for 24bit flac, use the regular rule for 16/44.1 flac". ideally, I want to skip the sox step if file is plain 16/44.1, and only do the extra sox

Enabled player.source debugging. Saw this when playing 24bit flac. Looks like it's picking AIF path... Code: [21-04-15 23:20:50.5509] Slim::Player::TranscodingHelper::checkBin (264) Checking formats for: flc-aif-*-* [21-04-15 23:20:50.5520]

Try incorporating that FLAC decode step into your conversion. I think the contents of your custom-convert.conf would look something like this: Code: flc pcm * 00:00:00:00:00:00 # FT:{START=--skip=%t}U:{END=--until=%v} [flac] -dcs $START$ $END$ --

You need to use a custom-convert.conf file with a FLAC conversion rule specific to that MAC address. I'll look one up when back at my PC. Apesbrain's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=738 View this

[slim] SB1 and 24bit flacs, how to configure LMS to downsample to 16-bit?

2021-04-14 Thread wildgoose
Hi, how do I configure my LMS server so that it'll automatically convert 24bit flacs down to 16bit 44.1 flac/wav when I am playing on my SB1? (firmware v40). Right now when I play 24bit flacs, I just get hiss (on both digital out, and analog out). I looked through all the settings in LMS, the
