AIF tracks - observation
JJGR:
So i was struggling to figure out why a few of my HI Res albums wouldn't sync to the Pono Player. In the sync window they would show the status of "On Device", but when i would eject the Pono Player they were not there. ? I noticed that the File Type data was showing "AIF" - NOT "AIFF" - so i simply re-tagged the files as "AIFF". Sure enough, next sync - the tracks were transferred to the Pono Player. I'd be curious to know if anyone else has discovered any other similar quirks.

I have had mixed results with High resolution files I have purchased from HD Tracks with my Pono. Note that I have no problem when using from JRiver MAC - all play fine. They also play fine when using Minimserver and a control application.
However certain albums such as The Eagles The Studio Albums ( .aif extension) will not show up in my Pono player, even if I copy them to my Pono memory card. Similarly Van Halen Studio Albums (.aiff) will not show up in my Pono Player.
Same for The Clash - any album from HD Tracks (.aif)
However other ones such as The Cars (.aif), Keith Jarrett Last Dance (.aif), Led Zeppelin (.aif) all load fine.
I have filed a support ticket with the Pono Support team, but no response after several queries over the past week.
JimH:
Is there a pattern to what works and what doesn't? AIF vs aif, for example?
bplexico:
Jim - for me - all the file extension are lower case. The only three albums I have trouble with so far are The Eagles Studio Collection, Van Halen Collection and The Clash albums.
Eagles and Van Halen are 24/192 and The Clash is 24/96.
So far every other high resolution file - whether FLAC or AIF(F) I have thrown at it works fine.
Will test further.
