wma files do not play on amd64 machines

Hello,

None of my .wma files work with MC27 amd64.

My system consists of an amd64 server and various clients. After upgrading the serrver from MC26, it failed to transcode .wma files for my iphone. I cleared the library and reimported the music files, and none of the .wma files were imported. I went back to MC26 for the server as more than 100 albums are in that format.

Now my server can serve and transcode the same .wma files, and both MC27 mac and MC27 arm64 clients can receive and play those files (no conversion necessary). But MC27 amd64 client cannot play those files, so I have to let the server convert the files and serve for MC27 amd64 client.

I wonder if I am the only one experiencing this behavior...

Awesome Donkey:
Are you using the latest build, 27.0.61? If not, you might try that.

bob:
I'm a bit confused about this.
iPhones can't play wma files.
And you referenced amd64 and arm64 in the post.
Can you elaborate more? Thanks.

I use jremote on my iphone. My amd64 server transcodes everything to 320kpbs mp3 and serve the iphone.

I use a raspberry pi 4 as a client machine. Its OS is Raspberry OS beta, which is an arm64 system.

English is not my native language... Please let me know if more clarification is necessary.

bob:
No problem.
They aren't protected WMA are they?
Linux and Mac versions of MC can't do anything with those.
