Bad syntax in Ogg Vorbis transcode in convert.conf
Last modified: 2008-09-15 14:37:04 UTC
In the 5.1.4 server release, convert.conf contains: ogg mp3 * * [oggdec] -Q -o - -R $FILE$ | [lame] --resample 44100 --silent -b $BITRATE$ -r $-x$ - - This is a syntax error for oggdec. The -R option needs a parameter. The command should look like: ogg mp3 * * [oggdec] -Q -o - -R 1 $FILE$ | [lame] --resample 44100 --silent -b $BITRATE$ -r $-x$ - - Same for the Squeezebox version: ogg wav squeezebox * [oggdec] -Q -o - -R 1 $FILE$
This, apparently, depends on which version of oggdec you are using. the latest version doesn't like -R 1. This is according to the CVS log for convert.conf v1.22 which changed -R 1 to -R
Okay, it looks like I need to update oggdec. Not sure how you could easily document this one, other than a comment in convert.conf and/or the FAQ.
