WMA files - nickalexander0703 - 14-05-2014 12:57
Hi i have a mixed collection of music files - some mp3, some wma and some flac. mp3 and flac work perfectly, but my wma files just don't show in minimserver. Most were ripped using dbpoweramp from cds - they appear on my pc, but not through minim... Anyway of getting these files back would be great. Cheers - Nick

The list of supported files in the MinimServer User Guide does not include .wma. So MinimServer just does not see your files.
As you have dBPoweramp, you should be able to use the converter to convert the .wma files to MP3 or FLAC; for best results, re-ripping to FLAC when you can is the way to go.
