[PROBLEM] Some m4a files not playing

[nilsws]

Hey -- I've just migrated my local music collection to Moode on a RBP5 and some m4a files are not playing -- no error message, they simply don't pop up in the player bar when I tap on them. I'd appreciate your advice where I should start looking for the cause. They play fine when accessed via VLC on the SMB share.

What version of moOde are you using? Where are your files? Give us some details and we can offer ideas

Reboot and then post the contents of the startup log.

The log can be viewed via the SSH command moodeutl -l or downloaded via the Logs section in System Config, or via Menu, System info from any of the Config screens. The startup log will be at the end of System info output.

Yeah, sorry. I'm on the latest Moode version (moode-player=9.0.7-1moode1). Files are on the SD card. MP3s in the same location play fine, as do most of my m4a files. But some don't and I'm not sure what the have in common.

My log is:

Well, the 907 release is broken and was pulled on the 15th, but maybe u applied the patch, who knows since your OP has almost no information other than something is not working.
