Reply To: playing wma lossless from LMS to Squeezebox with ffmpeg and custom-convert.conf

Yes, you’re right. But how?

In PiCorePlayer, I install ffmpeg and it converts the files on the fly with this custom-convert.conf file:

wmal flc * *
# FRB:BITRATE=-B %B}T:START=-ss %s}
[ffmpeg] -loglevel quiet $START$ -i $FILE$ -f flac -compression-level 4-

In Max2Play, „sudo apt-get install ffmpeg“ gives > E: Package ‚ffmpeg‘ has no installation candidate

I have 21,000 songs, and it is a backup from my music folder on my pc, so converting the files on the hard drive is not an option.

Thanks,
Shaun
