SACD from Win11 JRiver server to MacOS JRiver client always plays first track

(1/5) > >>

wynnytsky:
I've always run 2 instances of JRiver (both windows) -- server hosting my library and client connected to my DAC.

About 6mo ago I replaced my JRiver client (Win10) with a Mac Mini M1 and all was good accept for my CUE+ISO SACD albums.  No matter which track I choose, it instead always plays the first one.  I know it's not the server's fault because I have other uPnP/DLNA streaming devices (Gustard R26 and Matrix I2) that play the other tracks just fine.

Also, it doesn't matter if the DLNA server is configured for "Original" or "Specified Output Format" (ex: server-side DSD => PCM conversion)

I figured this was too big of an issue to go unnoticed so I never bothered to post here.  Please please fix!

bob:
The solution depends on if you are playing from the client MC as opposed to pushing the track to the client PC from the server through DLNA (remote zone).
Both are solvable.
If you are running the Mac as a DLNA renderer, set the DLNA server on the PC to "Specified format when necessary", choose a format and go to the advanced audio options in there and just choose SACD

If running as a Media Server client, the similar setting is in Media Network Client options on the client.

I recently added a dsd module in my amplifier and i've had the same experience, isn't this something that should "just work"? I've considered to split the tracks into seperate files (dsf if mc supports it) to avoid it but it seems i need paid third party software to do this

Awesome Donkey:
If you want to extract DSF files from a SACD ISO, just use Sonore's ISO2DSD app which is free. Or you can do it manually via the terminal via sacd_extract.

I'm very green when it comes to this stuff, webpage says doubleclick to open but nothing happens and windows asks for an app, open with winrar only has a bunch of jibberish files but no .exe i can use.
