Another FLAC issue

[echtepino]

I’ve read all the topics regarding FLAC on this forum and Roku’s forum.
My Pinnacle SB1001 and Firefly won’t play FLAC.
My FLAC files are mostly generated with One-click Audio Converter 3.9 from APE-files.
The first bits read as:

fLaC   "     7

ÄBð!ST>+3ôªN;qÂB¾„  Î    reference libFLAC 1.1.2 20050205      title=La Femme D'Argent

artist=Air   album=Moon Safari   comment=Track 1	   date=1998

genre=Rock

tracknumber=1%   encoder=One-click Audio Converter 3.9ÿøY k      ŠÿøYl      ‡ÿÿøYe      ¾eÿøYb      )ÿøYw      ÍQÿøYp      Z$ÿøYy      c¾ÿøY~      ôËÿøY¨@  µ«P

This should be fine.
Tagging is done with Tag&Rename 3.2. Untagged FLAC’s also don’t play.
Needless to say that mp3 and WMA play fine

Does anyone have a clue?

Should play fine. What platform and version of firefly? Are you loading a transcoder plugin? Either ssc-script or ssc-ffmpeg?

Windows XP;

Firefly Service	1.0 svn-1313	d:Program FilesFirefly Media Serverfirefly.exe

FireflyShell	1.0 svn-1313	D:Program FilesFirefly Media ServerFireflyShell.exe

RSP Output Plugin	1.0 svn-1313	d:Program FilesFirefly Media Serverpluginsrsp.dll

FFMPEG Transcoder Plugin	1.0 svn-1313	d:Program FilesFirefly Media Serverpluginsssc-ffmpeg.dll

WMA Transcoder Plugin	1.0 svn-1313	d:Program FilesFirefly Media Serverpluginsssc-wma.dll

Win32 Event Plugin	1.0 svn-1313	d:Program FilesFirefly Media Serverpluginsw32-event.dll

Don’t know about any transcoder plugin I have to use???
ssc doesn’t ring a bell either, sorry!
Thnx for your help

Edit: Aha,I read ffmpeg

[echtepino]

The problem has been solved!!!

I found the Firefly config on the web administration interface on http://localhost:9999/index.html

There I had to add .flac, on Music Files/Extensions.
Perhaps dumb of me but I haven’t read that anywhere.
