I'm not sure if I made the subtly of the issue clear. The problem relates to two very specific limited use cases - Cue/Flac & Tidal/Flac.
The flac command does not support the "--skip" option if input is from stdin. With flac/cue files, if no resampling is required, LMS will process flac file and skip to right point and direct stream to player With flac/cue file, transcoding with flac & sox will be used if resampling is required. I think the "--skip" option will appear if not playing from 0. The flac command with "--skip" will fail if input is from stdin. Creating a tdlflc would solve the current issue (i.e. IFT for Tidal and FT for cue/flac), The Tidal problem affects a few high compression Tidal track causing stuttering on ip3k players. I believe Tidal can supply 96kHz tracks (albeit with MQA). If LMS were to play these track to a SB3 - resampling would be required. If a user were then to ffwd within the track I think the same issues with flac/cue would occur. Is this too specific a user case to worry about ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113308 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
