Hi,
I just got MythMusic working. It uses the backend mysql server and
plays music (stored on the backend) using NFS perfectly!
I ran into a problem however...
My son has a large collection of music he imported from his CD
collection using Windows Media Player. I set this up using Samba some
time ago and all his music is stored on the backend machine. I never
realized it until now, but Windows Media Player uses WMA format (not
MP3). The music I ripped under Linux is stored as MP3s.
When MythMusic imports the songs, it skips the WMA files.
I did determine that Linux "mplayer" does play WMA files with no problem.
Is there a reason why MythMusic can't play WMA files (or won't import
them if it will play them)? That is, can't it use the same codecs thet
mplayer uses?
Thanks,
Dick
