It does seem that the version of ffmpeg downloaded as an extension to
Pcp 7.0 64 bit is unable to convert wma to flac, meaning the Play
Windows Media LMS plugin wont work. The simple ffmpeg command:
Code:
--------------------
$ ffmpeg -v 9 -i f1.wma f2.flac
--------------------
Should convert the wma file f1.wma to flac with the output going to
f2.flac. When I run the command, I get the same error message that I
get from running the command in the custom-convert.conf file installed
with the Play Windows Media plugin:
Code:
--------------------
Automatic encoder selection failed for output stream #0:0. Default encoder
for format flac (codec png) is probably disabled. Please choose an encoder
manually.
Error selecting an encoder for stream 0:0
--------------------
Its a bit hard to understand why png (a video encoder) would be the
default encoder for flac. If I specify flac as the codec:
Code:
--------------------
$ ffmpeg -v 9 -i f1.wma -c flac f2.flac
--------------------
I get the message:
Code:
--------------------
Invalid encoder type 'flac'
--------------------
Even though flac is listed when I run:
Code:
--------------------
$ ffmpeg -encoders
--------------------
it is listed:
Code:
--------------------
A..... flac FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec)
--------------------
I dont know where to go from here. As it stands I am not able to play
any WMA files.
