i also put wma to the extensions in the 1376 version and also to the ssc_extensions.
but i can’t see the wma’s in itunes or play them. the mt-daapd.log also found only the mp3s.
The double-check the config file, and stop and start the server. It sounds like the configuration line is typoed, or that the server hasn’t re-read the config.
so can somebody please help me to play wma’s with itunes.
Your bigger problem is that the slug doesn’t transcode wma files — there isn’t a fast enough decoder for WMA to run on the slug right now. The slug doens’t have hardware floating point, and it is a pretty slow CPU, so trying to convert from wma to wav takes longer than realtime — which means that if we tried to do transcoding on the fly, it would stall frequently, and make the “buffering” window keep popping up on the iTunes client.
Later i want to update my ipod with mt-daapd is that possible?
Nope, that’s just an iTunes thing.
