Hi Andrew
A couple of years ago I had similar frustration with /mnt/Music. So I learned some basic things about samba and permissions and then poked noob-ly at the problem for many days. I have long since forgotten what my train of investigation was……. but I did land on a solution that has continued to work. I thought I’d add my experience to your thread, for the benefit of our future selves 🙂
In Max2play Filesystem Mount, my parameters are:
//192.168.1.5/c/media/Music <<<<Yes the use of IP address was important
/mnt/Music
cifs <<<<I played with NFS, but cifs works for me.
user=<myusername>,password=<mypasswd>,sec=ntlm,iocharset=utf8,vers=1.0,uid=squeezeboxserver <<<<The vers and uid declarations were keys to solving my permissions problem, although I do not recall exactly why.
Hi
There is no sound card on my RPi3, just ethernet out to the router, the NAS and the Transporter which handles streaming and DAC.
The LMS codec settings for FLAC filetype are all at default: AIFF=flac, FLAC=native, MP3=flac/lame, PCM=flac.
Recall that the flac encoder used by HDTracks was “Lavf57.34.103”. If I re-encode those files (hires flac to hires flac) with dbPoweramp (which is currently using flac encoder version 1.3.1), then the files will play.
Note that the original Lavf57.34.103 files can be played on Win7 software players like Foobar2000 and MPC-HC, but I don’t know if they are „native“ or are transcoding in the background.
