WMA Lossless VBR
It concerns a particular .wma file that will not play on the LG ST600 (see my other post in the LG forum for its capabilities). I should add that I don't think it's Serviio that has the issue, as the device won't play it even if it is locally attached (by USB).
WMP reports that the file is Windows Media Audio 9.2 Lossless VBR Quality 100, 44 kHz, 2 channel 16 bit 1-pass VBR, with a bit-rate of 857 Kbps, but plays it without difficulty. Well, you'd expect that wouldn't you?!

When directly connected, the ST600 says 'Audio format not supported'. Accessing it via Serviio, Serviio displays things like the filename and duration properly, but no other metadata, and just doesn't play it. I don't have enough experience yet of Serviio to be sure, but I assume it has made a shot at transcoding it to mp3 or lpcm?
So, my question I guess is, is there a way to get a library report from Serviio that will identify any media formats it can't support (so that I can do a one-off conversion on each), or is there any way to transcode these to something more reasonable.
Thanks.
