logitechmediaserver is working fine on my server for serving music on my stereo (mainly FLAC and MP3 files).
Yesterday I tried to stream music through 3g to my Android smartphone using SqueezePlayer. To save on data consumption I limited the bitrate for the player to 128 kbps (through Player Audio settings on logitechmediaserver config).
I can play MP3s fine through SqueezePlayer. With MP3 files > 128 kbps a ps aux|grep lame shows that lame is launched to reencode the stream to 128 K bitrate.
However with other files (FLAC or even OGG) I have no luck. The file does not even play. I have checked File Types configuration : Stream Format Decoder for FLAC -> MP3 is set to flac/lame. Looks like flac decoding on the server does not work. Found nothing in the server log.

I solved this issue.
The logitechmediaserver package from AUR comes with its own flac binary as well as others in /opt/logitechmediaserver/Bin/i386-linux.

root@tangha /opt/logitechmediaserver/Bin/i386-linux #These are 32 bits binaries. In order to use these on a x86_64 ArchLinux, one has to enable multilib repository (if not already done) and then install some 32 bits compatibility libraries:
pacman -S lib32-glibc
pacman -S lib32-gcc-libsEt voilà :-)
