Job well done! Well sort of....

[dikkiedirk]

I like to stream Hires Audio to my iDevices and other equipment. To avoid resampling on my iPad I have those 24/192 and 24/96 flacs converted by Asset to wav files. The samplerate stays the same, as I can see on my external DAC. Asset looks like the only solution to accomplish this almost without problems.

I experience a minor quibble though. On some albums, which all have a sparate folder, the tracks are listed 2 or 3 times.

Could you explain why?

Tracks are listed not as where they are found, but rather by metadata, it is likely if you have 2 or 3 files of the same name, these files do exist as duplicates. If you can install PerfectTUNES it is able to list duplicates.

Thanks for the quick reply. I set only one folder on my NAS as source for the music files. Every album has its own folder which contains the tracks. Am I right that these duplicates must be in the folder I set as source?

On another matter: Why are tracks sometimes played in the right order, like 1 2 3 ....10 11 12, and sometimes like 1 10 11 12 2 3 4 5....?

How do you browse these tracks in Asset?

Through Artist / Album >>

Which control point do you use?

I stream the files to my Ipad, where they are played in 8player. If that is what you mean.

Try installing PlugPlayer on the ipad

Plugplayer is lousy. on Ipad all files get resampled to 44 or 48 kHz. 8player now works with correct track order without resampling.

I got one other question. When I set flac to play as wav, will 24 bit files files stay at 24bit wih the the same samplerate?

Yes.
