Re: Tinker, Tailor, Streamer, Pi.
This seems to explain my problem, a renderer compatability issue with some music playing apps between Sansum and WAV. My phone is more recent but the issue remains where mconnect is concerned.Fretless wrote: ↑Mon Mar 20, 2023 8:34 pm Some sort of a incompatibility with UMS and metadata according to this discussion:

Re: Tinker, Tailor, Streamer, Pi.
Been a while since I used a DLNA app, but I seem to remember that they give you access to the file structure of a NAS. Then it doesn't matter what codec your music files use.

VLC is a good DLNA streaming app.

Re: Tinker, Tailor, Streamer, Pi.
I feel your pain. I switched to transcoding from ALAC to FLAC because Picorepalyer didn't like how some ALAC files were. Then ESPmuse doesn't like some FLAC files with empty tables in the meta data. Argh.. I'm moving towards having one, rather than varied ecosystems for streaming.
The good news is that the Hifiberry that would not work on a Pi4, does work on a Pi3 - go figure...

Re: Tinker, Tailor, Streamer, Pi.
Replaced the Sonos Connect in the kitchen stereo with a little Grundig CDP 180 Discman which I have had since the late 90's.
Through its line-out socket it actually has a quite reasonable performance and will tide me over until I can think up a better solution. Actually this is going full circle, as my first ever audio setup for cooking/washing-up was a (Sony) Discman through a pair of powered computer speakers.
... and which CD was already sitting in it?

Re: Tinker, Tailor, Streamer, Pi.
They changed the chip architecture on the Pi4. Many HATs didn't work with the new board.
Pi2 and Pi3 were compatible, though.
However, the Pi4 does have a much-improved USB output.

Re: Tinker, Tailor, Streamer, Pi.
Yes the USB works fine with the Topping, with the SMSL, not so much. Anyway I'm pleased it's still working as it completely stopped working on the Pi4 a few weeks ago. I found the old Pi3 that I thought was dead because it would not work with the SMSL, put it all together and bingo it works again.
It almost makes you long for the days of cleaning and demagnetizing tape heads and all that cassette related malarky..

Re: Tinker, Tailor, Streamer, Pi.
Just received an interesting link from network-boffin Lazmo warning of possible problems / dangers on older models of Western Digital NAS devices and thought it wise to pass it on to any others here who may be interested:
https://krebsonsecurity.com/2021/07/ano ... tal-users/
WD have had to change their firmware in order to fix some serious bugs in the OS, at the expense of certain functionality (which would explain why some streaming devices won't work with the new model MyCloud).
My new NAS has the fix so should be okay (fingers crossed).
Thanks Lazmo!
