Playing AAC files on 64-bit installs
Squeezebox server plays AAC files natively, but uses a 32-bit library. On 64-bit machines you may get an error message on your squeezebox saying
| Text |
|---|
Problem: Can't open file for: [song title]
|
A simple fix for this problem is to install the 32-bit glib package. Open terminal on your HDA and enter the following:
| bash code |
|---|
yum install glib.i686
|
Your AAC files should play on successful installation.
