Hi.

I'm in the process of settings up LMS on ya RPi4. I do it from scratch.
Building CPAN asf.

I have a question.

The (custom-)convert.conf files  are spread all over the place on
different OS installations.

The location can not be chosen via "default" locations as it seems. 
I basically can not tell LMS where to look for the files at startup. LMS
looks only in the lms root-directory (usually /usr/share/"lms") by
default.

Ubuntu and others leave the convert files at /etc/squeezeboxserver, pCP
under its LMS rootdir /usr/local/slimserver/ ( which is not nice) ,
asf.

I am wondering if a user accessible location, which already exists,
wouldn't be a much better choice for at least 
the custom.convert.conf?? 

I'd prefer to go for /var/lib/"lms"/prefs . To me that looks much better
than above examples. It also wouldn't need a separate LMS backup
procedure. 

What I don't know:

How can I configure such a location?
Can I make LMS scan that location as default-location for a
custom-convert.conf ?


Thx.
