I have the same problem as the original poster. The issue with AlienBBC
and mplayer is that they require a GUI Desktop version of Linux. But if
you have a command-line only server, what do you do?  I've tried using
ffmpeg  i.e. my convert.conf file has this:

wma mp3 * *
[ffmpeg] -v 0 -i $FILE$ -f wav - | [lame] $-x$ --resample 44100 
--silent -q $QUALITY$ --abr $BITRATE$ - -

But the problem is Softsqueeze doesn't seem to recognize the wma
streams coming out of this for real time radio wmv streams.

I've searched and found a zillion posts on this issue. Some people
solve the problem with AlienBBC/mplayer because they have X11 gui
installed on their servers. Other people, I'm assuming with only
command-line servers, never seem to get an adequate answer that solves
their problem.

Is there a command-line wma converter that does NOT require a graphical
environment to be installed?

I'd love to listen to wma streamed radio stations via softsqueeze.

thanks in advance
