Suddenly unable to play .m4a and .ape (Solved)
LilyAarseth:
It's a windows 7 pc, I did no updates or changes on it since last time these files played like normal.
L is accessable both via file explorer locally on the windows 7 pc and SMB from other computers.
I couldn't see any smb settings in that menu, but I can access the files through SMB via Finder.
I tried restarting the media server running on that windows pc.
Since streaming the same files to another windows pc with mc27 works just fine, it seems there is something on the mac MC27 client that has gone wrong.
Flac files works like they should without any issue.
I even made a second install of mc27 on the mac to try the files that are unable to play, no luck.
Edit: All 3 computers are running MC27, The Windows 10 PC is connected to the W7 PC running MC27 as a server (which has the files locally) can play the files I can't play on the Mac client without any errors.

What versions of MC on the Mac and W7 server?
LilyAarseth:
Silicon Mac: 27.0.58, Windows 7 PC (Server): 27.0.52
bob:
Tried with .m4a on windows 7 PC 27.0.47 and 27.0.61
Mac latest build.
No issues.
On my Mac client I have the client audio conversion set to off but it also worked set to "when necessary".
Did you move the files on the win7 PC to another location??
Wheaten:
Reason for my remark on SMB, is that MAC stopped supporting SMB 1.0 after Mojave.
Still with Catalina and Big Sur, the mapping to the NAS, using SMB is unstable.
When a windows client is connected to the same NAS and credentials, my MAC has some real issues opening the connection.
