Easier to just transcode with a script. This post describes (at the end) how to transcode mpc — same thing only use the command to dump shn files to wav and use that for the transcode command.

I tried that on an older version (svn-1463 if I recall correctly), it failed for some reason, my SoundBridge showed a big X instead of the musicnote in front of the filename and told it was in ansupported format.

I put in the neccessary lines again, now it shows a musicnote on my SoundBridge. But it will not play the song… Time to get some debug logs. But that will have to wait. Maybe use shorten instead of shntool.

Won’t pick up any metadata, but if you can point me towards anything describing shn metadata, I can look at it.

As far as I know at the moment there is no metadata present in shn files.
If I find something about it you will get the information from me.
