Help with jukebox mode on linux

Postby nightwulf » Fri Apr 06, 2012 4:21 am

Hello. I'm having quite a time with jukebox mode on my server. The web player works fine, as does the Android app, for playing through other devices. I can't get anything out of jukebox mode. There is no visible error reported. I've tried via the web and Android player. Once playback is started, the transcoding appears to be in progress:

Code: Select all
username@server:/var/subsonic# ps x | grep ffmpeg
26030 pts/2    S      0:00 /var/subsonic/transcode/ffmpeg -ss 0 -i /home/username/shared/audio/The Smashing Pumpkins/[1993] Siamese Dream/01- Cherub Rock.flac -v 0 -f au -


I can't find this transcoding anywhere in the settings. Is it hard-coded for use in jukebox mode? I've tried changing the transcoding for the jukebox player (using suggestions from the Transcoders page on the wiki), but regardless of what transcoders I enter and associate with the player, I always get the ffmpeg line shown above.

I compiled audioDevList and have tried every line in subsonic.sh with the same results (no playback). Interestingly, I installed the Windows version on XP Professional running in VirtualBox on the same machine, and jukebox mode works perfectly.

Playback Application and version: web player and Android app v3.3.
Subsonic Version: 4.6 (build 2583) – December 6, 2011
Server Version: jetty-6.1.x, java 1.6.0_25, Linux (24.8 MB / 88.9 MB)
Hardware Platform: Slackware 13.37 - Linux (servername) 2.6.37.6 #3 SMP Sat Apr 9 22:49:32 CDT 2011 x86_64 AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 945 Processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
Java Memory Limit: (Windows: found in the Subsonic Agent in the taskbar) n/a, linux
Problem Filename: Really all of them, but as an example: 01- Cherub Rock.flac
Output from ffmpeg -i: (If you open a command prompt and type 'ffmpeg -i <filename>' what is the output? Ideally put this in a "code" block)
Code: Select all

Due to the confusion from too many genres of music, we have decided to put both country music and rap music into the genre of Crap music.

I did come across that thread in searching for posts regarding the same error, but I'm not getting any error message in the log nor is PulseAudio installed.
