[SlimDevices: Plugins] Just installed LMS and Softsqueeze on Linux but BBC iPlayer not working
Hi, I'm a new user. I've just installed LMS 7.7.2 and Softsqueeze 3.9b2 on my Linux Mint laptop. I'm in the UK. Everything is working except the BBC iPlayer plugin, which is one of the things I was most looking forward to. Looking at other threads, I see that others are having some fairly complex problems with BBC iPlayer too. Before I spend lots of time trying to figure out if their problems are the same as mine, I have a simple question... Given the set-up described above, should I expect BBC iPlayer to work? I'm concerned that maybe there's an obvious problem I'm missing, e.g. a fundamental incompatibility between the BBC streams and LMS on Linux, or something like that. Can anyone offer any advice about obvious stuff I should check? -- philipharvey44 philipharvey44's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=55251 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94385 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Thanks for the response. I already had ia32-libs installed, as it turned out. As expected, I was able to play the MP3 stream you supplied but not the AAC one. I just noticed that, when I try to play the AAC stream, SoftSqueeze prints an error: java.io.IOException: Could not find Stream Sync at org.kc7bfi.jflac.FLACDecoder.readStreamSync(FLACDecoder.java:557) at org.kc7bfi.jflac.FLACDecoder.readMetadata(FLACDecoder.java:212) at org.kc7bfi.jflac.FLACDecoder.decode(FLACDecoder.java:303) at org.kc7bfi.jflac.sound.spi.Flac2PcmAudioInputStream$1.run(Flac2PcmAudioInputStream.java:136) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:662) Any advice on how to debug this would be very gratefully received. -- philipharvey44 philipharvey44's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=55251 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94385 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Just installed LMS and Softsqueeze on Linux but BBC iPlayer not working
Softsqueeze is just telling you that LMS is not sending a stream. The problem is either faad or flac that are in the LMS Bin directory. What banner text is shown when you run the LMS flac and faad with -h option. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94385 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Oops, just realised that in fact I didn't have ia32-libs installed. Just installed them, and now everything is working :-) Thanks for your help. -- philipharvey44 philipharvey44's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=55251 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94385 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
