I just built a player with a Pi 3 B+ and the 7 touchscreen and overall its freaking awesome!
One issue, it wont play my m4a files. I store most of my music in flac and use this (github.com/epatch/docker-beets) Beets docker container to convert to m4a; which is using a complied ffmpeg that has libfdk-aac codec enabled for transcoding. Here is the Beets ffmpeg string Im using for AAC: ffmpeg -i $source -ac 2 -ar 44100 -y -vn -acodec libfdk_aac -vbr 5 $dest Every transcoded m4a file it comes to will not play, it says something like failure to open file ... and skips to the next file it can play, which is one of my mp3 files; I dont transcode the mp3 files to m4a. I used a separate SD to try Volumio and it played the exact same m4a files just fine so its not a limitation of the Pi. How can I get pCP to work with them? I very much prefer pCP over Volumio. I also tried loading ffmpeg from the main screen of pCP, it didnt help :-( Thank you! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric0321's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=68013 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108852
