Description Andy Grundman 2006-05-06 09:11:31 UTC

mov123 does not support piped input from stdin.  mov123 does support direct HTTP, so maybe we could use that instead.  Test URL is http://podcasts.macnn.com/02052006macnn.m4a

Comment 1 Dan Sully 2006-05-08 12:25:03 UTC

There are a few components to why this doesn't work..

audio/x-m4a needs to be added to types.conf

But for some reason '-' is still being added to the conversion pipeline.

Like wmadec.exe it needs to just have the URL be substituted as $FILE in convert.conf

Slim/Play/Source.pm line ~1245 appears to be the problem.

Comment 2 Andy Grundman 2006-05-23 11:31:14 UTC

This should be working now.  Chris, please test m4a as well as other types of remote streams (mp3, ogg)

Comment 3 Andy Grundman 2006-05-23 11:42:19 UTC

Note the fix is only in 6.5 for now, still need to backport to 6.3.

Comment 4 Andy Grundman 2006-05-23 12:56:35 UTC

Fix is now also in 6.3.
