Issues with Flac files downloaded from Linn

Posted by: CaptainBlack on 21 July 2012

Hi. I downloaded Steely Dan Gaucho today to play on my Naim Uniqute. There are two issues which wondered if anyone else has experienced: 1) the nStream iPad app reports the files to be type Wav 44khz when they are Flac and supposed to be 96Khz 2) when a track finishes playing the next track is not automatically played and the track time counter on the iPad app continues to count up. You can manually change tracks using the iPad. These problems only to occur with these particular downloaded files. The music otherwise plays fine by the way. Anyone any experience of these issues please?

Thanks Simon,

 

You had this one well in hand when I first saw it so I left it with you.

 

The actual network requirements for streaming audio are pretty lightweight - even 24/192 audio isn't exactly taxing - and it often surprises me that people are very keen to get into minutiae and tweakery before actually getting the grass roots basics sorted out and don't believe me when I try to tell them that WiFi and Ethernet over Mains are the spawn of the devil!
