Hi all

I have Ubuntu 9.04 running squeezecenter 7.3.2 to a squeezebox3 (old
slim devices one). I upgraded to the 9.04 a couple of weeks ago from
8.04 via 8.10 (then to 9.04). Anyway I noticed that now I did this, the
setup to play AAC files now fails. Mp3s and even WMAs seem to play just
fine. m4a's (not m4p's obviously) don't play - although the
squeezecenter says they are playing, there's no sound.

It was set up last December on 8.04 with a custom-convert.conf as per
the FAQ entry e.g. 


# Transcoding for AAC files.
# SC 7.3+
mov flc * *
# F
[faad] -w -f 2 $FILE$ | [flac] -cs --totally-silent
--compression-level-0 --endian little --sign signed --channels 2 --bps
16 --sample-rate 44100 -
mov mp3 * *
# FB:{BITRATE=-B %B}
[faad] -w -f 2 $FILE$ | [lame] --resample 44100 --silent -q
$QUALITY$ $BITRATE$ -r - -
mov wav * *
# F
[faad] -w -f 2 $FILE$




on the command line I can type 'faad', 'flac' and 'lame' and they run.
Well they spit out the default command line help. Running 'which faad'
'which flac' and  'which lame' gives them all installed in /usr/bin.

I am stumped as to how to make AAC/m4a files work. I searched around
and found nothing specifically relevant to 9.04, just the general guide
to getting these files functional on linux as per the FAQ. Which is
already done and left untouched.

I've also tried simple stuff like restarting squeezecenter and the
squeezebox.

Does anyone have any idea what I need to do or look at next?

thanks
scot
