I installed the slimserver beta on Ubuntu (Dapper) and am having problems with song ripped in iTunes. Sometimes the songs start slurring or playing at half speed. This doesn't happen with mp3s. The problem may be linked to synchronization because it seemed to start happening after a sync, although it would then persist after I turned one squeezebox off. It also would sometimes play properly on one box but not another.
To get the Squeezeboxes/Slimserver to play in the first place, I installed mplayer using the script I found here: http://www.binrev.com/forums/lofiversion/index.php?t20898.html And I modified my /etc/slimserver/convert.conf file to include the following lines which I found in this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=25501&highlight=mplayer+aac Code: -------------------- mov mp3 * * [mplayer] -novideo -ao pcm:file=/dev/fd/4 $FILE$ 4>&1 1>/dev/null | $lame$ --silent -q $QUALITY$ -b $BITRATE$ - - mov wav * * [mplayer] -novideo -ao pcm:file=/dev/fd/4 $FILE$ 4>&1 1>/dev/null -------------------- Has anyone seen this problem or have any idea what I can do to correct it? I have a lot of music that was ripped with iTunea and I'd rather no re-rip all of it. -- NWP ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NWP's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3730 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=25710 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
