The Doors on high res at qobuz

Thats a steal in my book. I bought the Perception box set and ripped the DVDs to 96/24 sound pretty good.

The only difference is the DVDs have a lot of extras, which are in the main a bit so so.

Enjoy.

Cheers for that downloading now

+ 1 Thanks for letting us know.

Yeah...thanks for the info.  For me The Doors have withstood

the test of time.  And I've never heard of qobuz, so thanks for

that too.

Good call, thanks blorbed.

I paid ca. £15 each for the Hi-Res downloads of The Doors and LA Woman last year.

Now I can get another 6 plus these 2 again for £20 for the lot.

Irritated on the one hand, but happy on the other!

Thanks! I have now downloaded this from qobus.

However as it is my first ever download I don't know what to do to make it seen by nstream. I downloaded it as WAV and copied it to the download folder of my unitiserve. Do I need to re-tag it after copying it to the unitiserve? Or should I have done this before copying it to the U/S? I have checked that the downloads folder is being scanned automatically and the files have now been there for more than 12 hours.

Any help appreciated!

Dozey, i have the older version of the US (1TB) which doesn't have the downloads folder.

In my case once I have the downloads onto my NAS which is scanned/shared by the US, I then force the US to 'refresh' the scans in Desktop Client. 

Dont know whether it's the right way to do it, but it seems to work for me.

It does take a while for the rescanning with Hi Res files before I can see them in nStream.

Its a stab in dark, but can you force it to do a refresh? (be patient while it does it though!)

I remember I did have some issues when I downloaded WAV in the past, with the result that I now go for FLAC downloads, but the issue I had was tagging / artwork related if I remember correctly, not that I couldn't see them in n Stream.

Thanks for the advice ChrisH - I will give it a try. Next time I think I will try downloading in FLAC!

Thanks for this - great music, excellent sound and the price is right!

Only quibble is that it comes as one long album - need to do some tag editing and chop it into the original albums with the correct covers - still very pleased though.

At Qobuz you can always redownload in a different format if you want.

or just convert it to another format on your PC with something like dBPoweramp Music converter.

cheers

Did your files turn up in nStream in the end Dozey?

Good luck!

I downloaded today and have been having a Doors day ever since :0)

Well I downloaded in FLAC an neither n-stream or LMS can see them

That's wierd.

Have you got your network music on a NAS and stream via your ND5XS? (I looked at your profile)

Has your nStream synchronised with your music library?

Im probably teaching you to suck eggs, apologies if I am, but make sure it has and make sure the album is in the right place on your NAS for your streamer tofind it.

Other than that, he onlything i Can think of is to check the metadata tags and search in nStream according to those (it comes up as 'the complete doors studio albums' in the title rather than the individual album titles, just so you know).

Luckily once I transferred the files to my NAS, they just popped up in nStream a short while later - maybe I was just lucky)

good luck, post something when you get it sorted, I'm curious

The music is on a LIV ZEN everything else shows alright just not this. Looked at meta data and everything looks fine. Can only  presume server not scanning new titles properly.

Sorted filed under T for The Doors rather than Doors, the

I feel such a fool

You found it, that's the main thing.

When our servers file stuff automatically for us, it doesn't always get filed like we would do it!

It's an odd one though. I'd never consider filing my LPs for The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, or The Who under 't'. Only 'b', 'r' and 'w', respectively. Imagine how crowded the 't' file would be otherwise.

Are you guys sure that the hidef dls are the quality stated ?

I've read some criticism about qobuz that their 'Studio Masters'

aren't necessarily so.

California Jim

They are marked a Studio master Guarantee so guaranteed in the resolution as delivered by the record label itself.

I have never heared of any incidents with Qobuz about not being delivered true high-res versions. Do you have a reference?

Going into the theoretical details, IMO no analog master can ever be considered to be high res and therefore no digital format taken from that master can be that either.
Only recordings recorded in high resolution format during recording itself can ever be considered to be true high res.
So only modern recordings can be true high res, all the rest is most likely sounding different due to remastering.

I don't know the full provenance but the files are definitely 24/96 and they do sound a lot better than rips from a CD.

I don't have the reference vinyl or CD recordings of these, but compared to some other hi-res downloads I have, these do sound really really good.
