Sounds like there is a problem with MinimStreamer. What type of device have you installed MinimServer on?
At the bottom right icone on my computer MinimServer icone is green, MinimWatch is not green (some king of grey) and if I click on the icone I have only access to Options, Refresh and Exit.
There is no separate icon for MinimServer. When you run MinimWatch you get a Minim icon in the system tray and if everything is OK it should be green. If it is grey there is a problem connecting to your server. So which is it, green or grey?
In the MinimWatch log it says “Startup complete”.
Please right-click the MinimWatch icon and choose “Show Log” and post a screenshot of the log here.
Concerning the transcode I can’t write it on MinimWatch as I do not have stream.transcode in Properties. So as I have this access on MinimServer Properties under system I wrote it there “flac:wav” in the stream.transcode box. I have nothing in stream.convert stream.options and stream.record.
So in stream.transcode box I wrote, as you recommend, " flac:wav, L16 " (remember it is on MinimServer - Properties - System). When I click to apply I got a message written in red below the stream.transcode box " Transcode setting ’ :L16’ requires a converter; correct highlighted value and retry. The code line now is in red in the stream.transcode. Which converter is required and I can I solve this issue.
To set the transcode options, right-click your MnimWatch icon and choose Properties, then open the System tab. Your dialog should look as follows:
If MinimStreamer is properly installed, the stream.converter field should contain “ffmpeg”.
Make sure transcode option is set to flac:wav,*:L16
.
Finally, make sure your .m3u file looks something like this:
