Hi again,
I just thought of something that you can try so we can learn more about
your problem: try server-side flac-to-pcm conversion. In the server
options, there is one tab where all available conversions can be
enabled/disable. For FLAC, try only leaving the FLAC to PCM
conversion. squeezeslave is able to receive pcm so we'll know if this
is a problem in the squeezeslave flac decoder or just due to
SqueezeCenter losing track.
Another thing to try is turning on some debugging tracing, in the
server's debugging tab. I did this a few times with success. I'd
start by enabling the following levels:
d_cli d_client d_command d_control d_directstream d_display d_files
d_formats d_http d_http_async d_http_verbose d_info d_mdns d_memory
d_mp3 d_os d_parse d_paths d_playlist d_plugins d_prefs d_protocol
d_remotestream d_scheduler d_select d_server d_slimproto d_slimproto_v
d_source d_source_v d_startup d_stdio d_stream d_stream_v d_sync
d_sync_v
This will probably be extremely verbose, but that's a start. Just
monitor the content of squeezecenter's log file for hints of the reason
why it starts skipping tunes. My log file is in
/var/log/slimserver/slimserver.log; yours may be different (I don't
know where they are in the slimserver-to-squeezecenter renaming task).
Just doing
Code:
--------------------
tail -f /var/log/slimserver/slimserver.log
--------------------
should let you see what happens in real-time. Disable unneeded trace
levels if there's too much info.
BTW, I looked at the "flac decoder error 0". The description for this
error code says:
"An error in the stream caused the decoder to lose synchronization."
This looks like the source of the data broke the sequence of packets in
some way, which smells like a server-side problem. This is why I'm
suggesting this server-side debugging.
Hope this helps.
Again, you may get more eyes looking at your problem if you post to the
squeezeslave thread I mentioned earlier.
