Tidal Stops Between Tracks on ND5 XS

Posted by: juanito on 31 August 2016

Whereas Tidal mostly worked fine on my MuSo after the firmware upgrade, with my ND5 XS it stops between tracks.

Sometimes the ND5 XS will play a few tracks before stopping and sometimes it will play for an hour or more before stopping. The play queue is +/- 175 tracks and is set to shuffle.

All that's required to get things going again is to press "play" in the Naim App or the front panel.

Note that Tidal is not stopping during tracks as it used to on the MuSo prior to the firmware upgrade.

Does anybody have an idea why this is happening?

Not sure whether it's relevant to your ND5 XS, but my NDS occasionally will play single tracks only.

The solution is to power down the streamer for a couple of minutes then everything returns to normal. Don't know why, but it works.

My system is permanently powered up, and it seems that the NDS requires a "rest" every few weeks.

Thanks - I've recently switched the ND5 XS back on after three months away, so I don't think it's that.
