I have also tried with MC23 32-bit, on the same pc and with same driver ASIO 64-bit (I have used that driver since 2014, with MC17, 18, 20, 21 and 22; on pc with windows 7, 8.1, 10 all 64-bit), but the issue is the same:

- if I play a PCM file I receive the message " Playback could not be started on the output ASIO using the format '44,1 kHz 2ch."
- if I play a DSD file I listen the music.

MC22, on the same pc (with windows 10 1703, 64-bit) and the same ASIO driver, play all files.

On another PC, also with windows 10 1703 and the same ASIO driver, both MC22 and MC23 32-bit do not play PCM files.

I do not understand what difference there is
1. between the PC where MC22 works well and the other where MC22 does not play PCM files;
2. between MC22, that work well (on a PC), and MC23 32-bit, that will not work (on the same PC).

Hi,
I apologize for a written mistake yesterday, I found that on my PC (Windows 10 1703 64-bit) you can install both the 64-bit ASIO driver and the 32-bit driver (it's the "North Star Design Driver Package (nsd38464) MEDIA (04/08/2013 1.0.56) "which can only be installed at 64 bits)".
So I have spent some time to repeat an ordered sequence of test :
 - on the pc (windows 10 1703 64-bit) where MC22 work correctly, I have verified that there is PCM_DSD_ASIO64 driver installed;

 - on the other pc (windows 10 1703 64-bit) where neither MC22, nor MC23 work with PCM Files
  1. I have uninstalled ASIO driver, then I have installed PCM_DSD_ASIO32 driver
     1.a - MC22, with ASIO driver, don't play PCM files; DSD files (native format) are correctly reproduced;
     1.b - MC22, with WASAPI  driver, crash (blue screen) when I try to play a file;
     1.c - MC23 32-bit with ASIO driver don't play PCM files;  DSD files (native format) are correctly reproduced;
     1.d - MC23 32-bit, with WASAPI  driver, crash (blue screen) when i try to play a file;

 2. I have uninstalled PCM_DSD_ASIO32 driver, then I have installed PCM_DSD_ASIO64 driver:
     2.a - MC22, with ASIO driver, don't play PCM files;  DSD files (native format) are correctly reproduced;
     2.b - MC23 64-bit, with ASIO driver, don't play PCM files;  DSD files (native format) are correctly reproduced;
     2.c - MC23 64-bit, with WASAPI driver, play correctly PCM files and DSD files (DoP format)

Now, I think that all cases have been tested, but the issues remain.

PaoloF:
MC23's try period is terminated, I can not go on with analisis of the problem, but I can not buy M23 64-bit since it don't work.
I expect yousr solutions.

Thanks.

Hi, just want to say that I have the same situation here, ie, since 3-4 months I get the following message "something went wrong with the playback".
That happenns in the following situations:
- On a playlist, suddenly it will freeze and there is only one way to go to and it is to close the program.
- When I play a complete album, it will suddenly stop playing and freeze in the middle of a track.

My setup is as follow:
- JRiver 64 bit installed (re installed again today);
- Music is on a Raid unit (Areca 5026) in a Raid 10, connected with Thunderbolt 1;
- Windows 10 latest build 1707;
 
As I said, only since 3-4 months I have that situation, at the  end of JRiver 22 and now I am with the latest build 23.0.91.
I have been using JRiver since a couple of years without any issue but this one is killing me.
I redid my Library completely today (cleared the one I had and rebuilt a new one), still the issue is there.

Any ideas or path to explore are welcome, I would like to continue to use JRiver as it suits all my needs, ie convolution with 4 ways crossover that works perfectly.
Thanks in advance,
Pierre

JimH:
What are you playing to?  A DAC?

You can set MC to play everything to the same bitrate/samplerate in DSP  Studio > Output settings.
