I removed the option -x in the second step,lame transcoding.
the noise has gone, only the progress bar in the webplayer don't work
anyway sounds good now!
from the lame manual:
option -x
Swap bytes in the input file or output file when using --decode.
For sorting out little endian/big endian type problems. If your encodings sounds like static, try this first.
Without using -x, LAME will treat input file as native endian.
enjoy,
trilhaer
only one strange thing left

it's playing very well,
but the subsonic log said this en the end off decoding a m4a file (after 99% decoding)
DEBUG InputStreamReaderThread (/var/subsonic/transcode/lame) fatal error: can't update LAME-tag frame!
somebody has a solution?
