Streaming WMA as MP3 from your SlimServer
Sep 18, 2006 by Graeme in Uncategorized
There’s a great guide under the heading WMA and Slim here.
On my Ubuntu server I used apt-get install ffmpeg to install ffmpeg, created the slimserver-convert.conf file as instructed, and deleted the blank lines that have crept into the guide. The correct lines to put in slimserver-convert.conf are:
wma wav squeezebox * [ffmpeg] -v 0 -i $FILE$ -f wav - wma mp3 * * [ffmpeg] -v 0 -i $FILE$ -f wav - | [lame] -x -m s -r -S -q 5 -s 44.1 - -
