I dont seem to be able to play mp3's using Roon server on Snakeoil OS. Am sure I used to be able to but dont play them often so not sure when things changed.
I asked at Roon forums here but so far they think "This seems to indicate a version conflict between ffmpeg and libraries on your system it depends on"

This is not device dependant

Hmm.. That could be a reason as Snakeoil is using a custom built ffmpeg library...

Can you help and run the following commands, and show me the output of each one?

Code:
ls /usr/local/lib -l

dpkg -s ffmpeg

Yep sure

$ ls /usr/local/lib -l

Description: Tools for transcoding, streaming and playing of multimedia files
FFmpeg is the leading multimedia framework, able to decode, encode, transcode,
mux, demux, stream, filter and play pretty much anything that humans and
machines have created. It supports the most obscure ancient formats up to the
cutting edge.
.
This package contains:
* ffmpeg: a command line tool to convert multimedia files between formats
* ffserver: a multimedia streaming server for live broadcasts
* ffplay: a simple media player based on SDL and the FFmpeg libraries
* ffprobe: a simple multimedia stream analyzer
* qt-faststart: a utility to rearrange Quicktime files

Try and run this command, then reboot the computer and try and see if Roon has any problems with MP3 now.

Code:
sudo mv /usr/local/lib/libavcodec.so.57.64.101 ~

***frednork*** · 14-Dec-2020, 03:00 PM

Still doesnt play mp3's but seems to try to now whereas before did nothing.

Hmmz... maybe try and run this,

Code:
sudo ldconfig

Then reboot again and see what happens? Do you know where the Roon executable is? If yes, can you run the following and show me the output:

Code:
ldd /path/to/roon_binary

This should confirm to me whether Roon uses ffmpeg (libavcodec) for MP3 playback or uses something else.

Well, good news is RoonServer doesn't appear to be using ffmpeg.. But then again Roon is C# (Mono) it may be using another means to load the libaries (each .so file you see above is something called a library, in Windows this is commonly called a DLL).

Do you know if RoonServer have any diagnostic logs? If so, can you post the log info here for me to have a look?

Had a look at roonserver logs and couldnt easily find something that made sense to me so have included all logs in log folder

Edit: cant upload as they are too big

Go to the Snakeoil web app, under "System", click "Diagnostics"... From there you can find my email, send the diagnostics file together with the Roon logs so I can have a look.

Note:
1. Not posting email here as I don't want to get spammed :p
2. Remember to try and play some MP3s first, so any errors will be logged.
