Hi again! Upgraded 7.3.3 to 7.3.4 and I lost Replay Gain using Squeezeslave 0.9 on Windows. I have deleted the player in server.prefs. Adding -esqueezeplay helps but it only play one song and stop. Kind Regards /Bernt -- bernt 'LastFM' (http://www.last.fm/user/ottovonkopp/) SB3, SB BOOM -

It depends on your distro - in *buntu you have to: edit /etc/pulse/client.conf changing autospawn = yes on line 26 to autospawn = no and check if your user is in audio group - if not then add yourself to this group by - sudo adduser USER audio -- cpu

I think it's sudo 'usermod -G audio username' and logout and back in for the changes to take affect. The OSS version hogs the sound card as well plus you need to load the snd-pcm-oss module if you're using alsa. I haven't released an OSS binary for the current 0.8-64 beta release. -- ralphy

If it works using the default device, which it appears to from you're previous posts, then it's not likely an issue with squeezeslave but rather an alsa config issue. I mainly use the OSS version, so I don't have any other suggestions. There has been lots of discussions around alsa and dmix on

Looks like the dmix device is configured for a sample rate other than 44.1KHz. Squeezeslave will only work with that sample rate. You mentioned creating an .asoundrc file for the dmix device. Did you try removing the file, log out and log back in an try running SS again. -- ralphy

Squeezeslave supports streaming wave, flac, ogg and mp3 native. All other formats need to be transcoded. However, you must set bitrate limiting to no limit in the squeezeslave player audio settings in SC, otherwise everything is transcoded to mp3. There was a bug in older versions of

You'll need to use a version of SS compiled for ALSA. Run squeezeslave -L to get a list of available devices, you'll need to use the dmix device which is 12 in my list. # squeezeslave -L Output devices: * 0: HDA Intel: ALC883 Analog (hw:0,0) 1: HDA Intel: ALC883 Digital (hw:0,1) 2: HDA Intel:
