New submission from Andrew Heard <[email protected]>: Apple Lossless files that a created using ffmpeg -i filename -acodec alac filename.m4a do not play over iTunes sharing but do play locally in iTunes. Reconverting the file to Apple Lossless using iTunes does allow the files to play successfully over iTunes sharing.
I believe the problem is with the ipod format, not with the alac encoder. I created an alac file using Apple's encoder and then copied it into a new file with ffmpeg and the sharing problem occurred. ffmpeg -i alacfile.m4a -acodec copy newalacfile.m4a I did the same with an AAC file as well and it resulted in the same problem. ---------- messages: 13722 priority: normal status: new substatus: new title: alac files created with ffmpeg do not play through iTunes sharing type: bug ________________________________________________ FFmpeg issue tracker <[email protected]> <https://roundup.ffmpeg.org/issue2618> ________________________________________________
