New streamer
Posted by: MartinStubbs on 25 February 2013
First post, so hope someone can help
Having being a Naim user for many years I recently decided to take the plunge and move to streaming. I'm certainly impressed, but am coming across some problems with the ND5XS receiving certain files. Most of my music is either ripped from the original CD, or downloaded. These appear as MPEG3 files. More recently I've been ripping in lossless format - WMA. These all play ok
The music is stored on a couple of PCs and I've bought a Synology NAS to act as server. On transferring files to NAS (which appears to be successful) I find those saved as MPEG3 play fine, but those on lossless WMA won't play, showing invalid file type on the ND5 XS
I hope it's me missing some obvious point, but I'd really value any advice you can offer
