Ogg Vorbis is my preferred format, due to it's bitrate/quality ratio, and I've used it flawlessly since version 4.8. My library is mostly mp3 files.
Yesterday I updated to 5.0 and I had a great deal of issues with the songs refusing to stream, but those have mostly been resolved.
However now, instead of giving the maximum bitrate I set (192 kbps), the cached bitrates now vary wildy. If the bitrate of the file is already 192 kbps, the cached file is usually pretty close.
If it is much greater , say 256 kbps, it goes way down to 128 kbps.
320 kbps files, are the worst, as the resulting cached files are also 320 kbps, and subsequently chew up a great deal of cpu time in the transcoding process.
Here are my transocding commands
ogg audio :
Code: Select all
ffmpeg -i %s -acodec libvorbis -ab %bk -f ogg -
Code: Select all
ffmpeg -i %s -acodec libvorbis -ab %bk -ac 2 -f ogg
I also noticed that whenever I try to set a max bitrate directly from the web client, it isn't saved, perhaps that's related?
Anybody know how I might fix this?
