Forecast new streamer firmware dates?
Posted by: Simon-in-Suffolk on 24 September 2014
Does anyone have any idea when we might expect the new streamer firmware, that will perhaps work with the new Naim streamer app and offer music service streaming capability.. and even possibly firmware update by the app.

That's what I like to know as well.
If streamer firmware has an effect on nStream performance, I would've thought it wise to not release the next nStream rev until the streamer firmware is released. So if that is so, it should be sooner rather than later.
.. and even possibly firmware update by the app.

That would be very convenient instead of how it could be carried out currently..
If Linn can do it..... why not Naim?
While on this subject my nd5xs is running 3.21 firmware not the current 3.22.
I am not encountering any problems with this version and no problems in using the new app.
My dealer said he would update the nd5xs for me while I wait,
Question;-
As all is working ok would it be still worthwhile updating,what has 3.22 got that 3.21 hasn't.?.

The firmware files update I used in my old job tended to be large & took some time to upload, sometimes up to 30 minutes, I was led to believe they were complete program overwrites.
The software changes was stuff like additional features & graphics were small & took just a few seconds to load.
Naim 3.22 is 32.5MB

Gapless playback for live albums and better stability for iRadio, I suppose. My UQ2 is still running on 3.21
Cheers for the info.
I think I will take up on my dealers offer and call in at his earliest convenience for the update.

Still running my UQ2 on 3.21 here as well. No problems with gapless playback or iRadio whatsoever (",)

Hardware - though I'd safely bet that the Mu-so can.
Have to say I haven't updated my qute for a while. The upgrade process is such a faff. I use a mac and last time had no joy at all using that, maybe because it didn't like my serial to usb converter. New n stream seems to work a treat though.

Thankfully the Qute2 supports updates thru a usb cable.
