Core metadata WAV files tracks mixed up

Posted by: Paulie on 04 July 2017

Having the following problem:

I download a high quality WAV file (Radiohead's OKNOTOK). In the folder after I download it, all is where it should be (correct track order, cover art and so on). I move it into the Core downloads folder. When I check the contents in that folder, same thing - everything is in order. However, when I open it on the Naim app - the track order is all mixed up. I've had the same thing on a couple of other downloads as well. The tracks seem to go: regular track one, bonus track, regular track two, another bonus track, etc. This only seems to happen on high quality WAV downloads. Anyone else had similar problems? Any solution? Thanks.

It sounds as if it's downloaded as though the album and bonus tracks are separate discs. The way to fix this is to change the track numbers. Say there are 10 tracks on each disc. Rather than 1/10 etc change them to 1/20, with the bonus starting at 11/20. You'll also need to set the disc to 1/1 on all tracks. That's what I'd do anyway.

Indeed, as HH syas ... it is probably the metadata that is wrong ...
