I would have thought that "Install FFMpeg libraries for Squeezelite" on the main web-page would solve your problem. Did you try to make a "backup" and then reboot?

So either use the "backup" button on the main webpage (select the "advanced mode" in the bottom) or use the picoreplayer app within Jivelite - and here "save to sd-card" piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM.
