Convert from OS X host to SMB (Windows) share fails

[WoodrowStool]

Very, very pleased to see that this suite of apps is now available for OS X. Purchased and downloaded today, for a test I attempted to convert a directory of lossless .wma files to Apple lossless. These files are hosted on a Windows SMB share, although the NAS is itself not a Windows box, but everything - Windows, Linux, OS X - here talks to it fine.

Selecting a directory and then attempting to convert gives a "no audio files selected for conversion" error. I've duplicated this with different files and directories a dozen times.

Moving a directory full of files from the Windows SMB share to a native Apple AFP share and it works fine.

Something not right here, mo debly a bug. Send me a PM if you need screenshots or details, happy to work with you to fix it.

Hold the phone for a moment - this looks like it may be a strange permissions issue on my end. Consider this a self-inflicted problem for the moment while I do more research and confirm.

Perhaps I am even more dense than I thought. So I believe there is no codec in the OS X version of the converter to convert a lossless .wma (or any .wma file) to anything? Correct? If so, as we say, "this would esplain it". Pity if true, that's what I bought this for, but no worries.

The "works fine" comment in my original post was due to me moving a folder containing .mp3 versions of the music files instead of the .wma lossless files that I meant to. Operator error.

Yes WMA is not supported on OS X
