The transcoding script will end up being called like this:
mt-daapd-ssc.sh "/path/to/oggfile.ogg" 0 0
Or close enough. Run that by hand and see what you get. You should get a wav file on stdout.
Your problems are one of the following:
1. mt-daapd-ssc.sh isn’t producing a valid wav output. Test it by manually running, redirecting stdout to a file, and playing the file with a media player. If it works, that’s not the problem.
2. your ssc_script path in your config file isn’t right
3. that’s about all it could be, given the log. 🙂

Ahh, crap.
either that, or it’s ticked about the content-type.
Verify you can generate a .wav file from the transcode script. If you can, I’ll feed you a patch that might do it.
— Ron
I have checked the mt-daapd-ssc.sh script (kludge version) on
the command line. It produces wav as advertised. As you may have
noticed, the kludge
helps the script to determine the time length of the ogg file.Anthony
The /etc/mt-daapd.conf file looks fine, including the ssc_prog
reference, see attached.Anthony
sorry, the include file choked on a .conf file.
Here again is the /etc/mt-daapd.conf file. the ssc_prog
looks fine.Anthony

# This is the location of a playlist file.
# This is for Apple-style “Smart Playlists”

#
# password (optional)
#
# This is the password required to listen to MP3 files
# i.e. the password that iTunes prompts for
##password mp3
#
# extensions (optional)
#
# These are the file extensions that the daap server will
# try to index and serve. By default, it only indexes and
# serves .mp3 files. It can also server .m4a and .m4p files,
# and just about any other files, really. Unfortunately, while
# it can *attempt* to serve other files (.ogg?), iTunes won’t
# play them. Perhaps this would be useful on Linux with
# Rhythmbox, once it understands daap. (hurry up!)
#
# Failing that, one can use server-side conversion to transcode
# non-standard (.ogg, .flac) music to wav on the server side.
# See the ssc_* options below.
#extensions .mp3,.m4a,.m4p,.ogg
#
# ssc_extensions (optional)
#
# List of file extensions belonging to the files daap server
# performs internal format conversion and present to clients
# as WAV files. Extensions must also be present in ‘extensions’
# configuration value, or files are not probed in the first
# place.
#ssc_extensions .ogg
#
# ssc_prog (optional)
#
# Program that is used in server side format conversion.
# Program must accept following command line syntax:
# ssc_prog filename offset length …
# Parameter filename is the real name of the file that is
# to be converted and streamed, offset is number of bytes
# that are skipped from the beginning of the _output_ file
# before streaming is started, length is length of the song
# in seconds (or zero). All other possible arguments must
# be ignored. The resulting wav file (or the rest of
# the file after initial seek) is written to the standard
# output by the ssc_prog program. This is typically
# a script that is a front end for different conversion tools
# handling different formats.
#ssc_prog /usr/local/bin/mt-daapd-ssc.sh
#ssc_prog /usr/local/bin/mt-daapd-ssc.pl#
# logfile (optional)
#
# This is the file to log to. If this is not configured,
# then it will log to the syslog.
#
# Not that the -d switch will control the log verbosity.
# By default, it runs at log level 1. Log level 9 will churn
# out scads of useless debugging information. Values in between
# will vary the amount of logging you get.
#logfile /var/log/mt-daapd.log
#
# art_filename (optional)
#
# There is experimental support thanks to Hiren Joshi
# ([email protected]) for dynamically adding art to the id3v2
# header as it is streamed (!!). If you were using a music system
# like zina or andromeda, for example, with cover art called
# “_folderOpenImage.jpg”, you could use the parameter
# art_file _folderOpenImage.jpg and if the file _folderOpenImage.jpg
# was located in the same folder as the .mp3 file, it would appear
# in iTunes. Cool, eh?
##art_filename _folderOpenImage.jpg
#
# rescan_interval
#
# How often to check the file system to see if any mp3 files
# have been added or removed.
#
# if not specified, the default is 0, which disables background scanning.
#
# If background rescanning is disabled, a scan can still be forced from the
# “status” page of the administrative web interface
#
# Setting a rescan_interval lower than the time it takes to rescan
# won’t hurt anything, it will just waste CPU, and make connect times
# to the daap server longer.
#
##rescan_interval 300
# always_scan
#
# The default behavior is not not do background rescans of the
# filesystem unless there are clients connected. The thought is to
# allow the drives to spin down unless they are in use. This might be
# of more importance in IDE drives that aren’t designed to be run
# 24×7. Forcing a scan through the web interface will always work
# though, even if no users are connected.# always_scan 0
#
# process_m3u
#
# By default m3u processing is turned off, since most m3u files
# sitting around in peoples mp3 directories have bad paths, and
# I hear about it. 🙂
#
# If you are sure your m3u files have good paths (i.e. unixly pathed,
# with relative paths relative to the directory the m3u is in), then
# you can turn on m3u processing by setting this directive to 1.
#
# I’m not sure “unixly” is a word, but you get the idea.
## process_m3u 0
#
# scan_type
#
#
# This sets how aggressively mp3 files should be scanned to determine
# file length. There are three values:
#
# 0 (Normal)
# Just scan the first mp3 frame to try and calculate size. This will
# be accurate for most files, but VBR files without an Xing tag will
# probably have wildly inaccurate file times. This is the default.
#
# 1 (Aggressive)
# This checks the bitrates of 10 frames in the middle of the song.
# This will still be inaccurate for VBR files without an Xing tag,
# but they probably won’t be quite as inaccurate as 0. This takes
# more time, obviously, although the time hit will only happen the
# first time you scan a particular file.
#
# 2 (Painfully aggressive)
# This walks through the entire song, counting the number of frames.
# This should result in accurate song times, but will take the most
# time. Again, this will only have to be incurred the first time
# the file is indexed.
## scan_type 0
#
# compress
#
# Whether to use gzip content-encoding when transferring playlists etc.
# This was contributed as a patch by Ciamac Moallemi just prior to the 0.2.1
# release, and as such, hasn’t gotten as much testing as other features.
#
# This feature should substantially speed up transfers of large databases
# and playlists.
#
# It will eventually default to 1, but currently it defaults to 0.
## compress 0
Try this patch.
Like a moron, I forgot to run it before I started hacking it up, so I’m not sure that the content type was really the issue, but that’s what’s fixed in this patch, and I verified I can play a transcoded ogg file.
wrt to the length munging — if you configure it with –enable-oggvorbis, it will determine the song length itself and properly pass the forge length. I suspect you didn’t configure it like that and the ogg files are showing up as “continuous”.
Oh, and if you do that, you’ll need to rescan the ogg files.. either run mt-daapd with a “-r” for rescan, or:
foo@bar$ sqlite /path/to/songs.db
sqlite>update songs set force_update=1 where type='ogg';
sqlite>.quit
Let me know how it works.

It Works!!
thanks for your help.
I removed my kludge from mt-daapd-ssc.sh, installed the patch,
configured using –enable-oggvorbis, make, make install,
redid the sqlite database as you described.Bingo.
Another happy Customer!
Thanks again and nice software!Anthony
