Still unable to get out of iRadio using Naim app

Posted by: Aaron on 05 February 2017

I am using the Naim app on my iPAD to control my Naim ND5 XS streamer.  Over the last week or two, I have downloaded and installed several updates; at present I am running version 5.4. Despite having what I believe to be the most recent version, I continue to have problems getting back to uPnP from iRadio.  When on my iRadio page, despite using the menu or home option in the upper left corner of my screen, I find I toggle back and forth between two iRadio pages.  I have to turn the iPAD off completely and restart the app in order to get back to uPnP.  Might anyone have any suggestions?  Many thanks

I'm not sure about the iPad in app issue but FYI to restart an app you should just be a able to double tap the iPad home button and then swipe away the apps. Then press the home button again. When you press the app again it will restart.

It will just save you switching your iPad off and on which must get annoying.

Thanks.  I will try that.  In the meantime, I finally decided to completely uninstall the app and download and reinstall.  That seems to have solved the problem.  If it returns, I will try your suggestion.

BTW, is "Fink" part of your name?  My last name is also "Fink"!

Glad to hear it's behaving now.

 No, Fink is no part of my name, it's a band I'm a fan of

Cool.  I will have to check them out.

Please do. They're a great little British band.

Aaron, I had the same and also uninstalled and reinstalled.  Seems to have cured it....until the next time.

Problem has recurred despite uninstall and reinstall.  Waiting for further news.

I suspect something amiss with regards to your network set up. Ia it wires or wireless or internet-over-mains?

Wired connection.  Problem seems relatively new.  I thought this was to be addressed in bug fixes for v5.3 but it seems to have persisted.  Interestingly, when I completely close the app by "flying' it off the iPAD screen and then reopen it the problem temporarily resolves.

I've re-read your post and there is something I'd like to clarify.

When you open your Naim app (v5.4), you should be taken directly to the inputs, as in my screenshot below:

This is a screenshot of my NDX running with a system's control enabled - hence the pre-amp inputs.

Here I'm using FM. If I press DAB, iRADIO the last played station for that universal tuner's mode is played immediately.
If I press UPnP, I'm taken to my UPnP server and need to choose an album. Before I press PLAY, radio is still playing. This ensures continuity of music being played.

I noticed one thing: trying to get back from an iRADIO screen requires repeated 'return button' action as one progresses up the iRadio folder tree (station > city / region > country > continent etc etc).

Does the above help a bit?
