LMS not able to play MP3

[agent_kith]

Thanks AK
 I installed ffmpeg and rebooted as requested.
No change unfortunately. In the SB player GUI it says that it plays but on iPeng the player disappears and the player goes to an error state (A pulsing red X in the status) in the snakeoil player GUI.
I set the player.streaming logging to debug but no log entries generated.
 
Tried a few versions.
Just for kicks, I thought that I would then try some different mp3's and they started playing !!
I pulled one of the offending files down to my desktop and it plays fine !
So it seems that squeezelite doesnt like SOME mp3's..that play fine elsewhere. hmmm
 
this one works
 
This one doesnt....
 
[edit - images are getting screwed up when viewed in the forum, so removed them]

The obvious difference is the CBR/VBR...I tried a few more CBR which were ok. Then I found another VBR which caused LMS to bomb out again.
So it seems that squeezelite doesnt like variable bit rate mp3 ???

Unfortunately I don't have a lot of MP3s to experiment, the few I have all worked fine, and yet to check if they're CBR or VBR. This looks like a problem with the LMS that comes with Snakeoil. Can you try and download the latest version of LMS and see if that problem goes away?

Either that you can also send me a location of a VBR MP3 so I can try and recreate this later from my rig. You can find my email when you click on the "Generate Diagnostics File" button in the systems page.
