So, I've had Subsonic installed previously and all worked just fine. Most of my library is FLAC files, which Subsonic transcoded well and streamed correctly. I decided yesterday to replace my installation with the webapp running via Tomcat. After a bit of fiddling (had to run the webserver as root), Subsonic appears to be working. However, I can only stream MP3 files. Subsonic reports that it is missing the transcoders. How can I point Subsonic towards the transcoders that are in fact installed? They're in the correct directory (/Library/Application Support/Subsonic/transcode/ffmpeg) but Subsonic doesn't appear to see them.
PS
I was reading this topic regrading using Tomcat for Subsonic on Linux:
viewtopic.php?f=6&t=9426I [blindly] ran the command
- Code: Select all
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/lame /var/subsonic/transcode/lame && sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ffmpeg /var/subsonic/transcode/ffmpeg
(I'll admit I didn't really know what I was doing) and the "Transcoder not installed" warning message went away in Subsonic. But it still won't play FLAC files.
Can somebody point me in the correct direction? I can provide log files if needed, but which log would be the most helpful?
