I recently purchased dbpoweramp to rip my CD collection and add it to my NAS to stream through Sonos. In 2021, I used the free trial version of dbpoweramp to do this. I ripped 100 or so CDs to FLAC - all these play perfectly well through Sonos. Last week, I purchased the full-fledged version of dbpoweramp to do some more rips to FLAC. None of the newly-ripped CDs will play through Sonos.
I did a test, and if I rip to WAV, the files play on Sonos. I don't want to use WAV though, cause it takes up so much more space.
I've come to the conclusion (after troubleshooting and seeking with Sonos) that the pay version of dbpoweramp provides more metadata to the FLAC files than the trial version of dbpoweramp, and the additional metadata is causing Sonos playback issues. So, I'm wondering if there's a way to limit the metadata on the pay version to align with the trial version so I can still rip to FLAC.
Could anyone help me with this?
