Pono Music World 20.0.50 for Mac -- Available Here

<< < (2/3) > >>

Cheezmo:
My music library is in Apple Lossless format.  I have a smart playlist set to sync the Pono.  Since the Pono does not support Apple's NORM tags for volume normalization, I have Pono Music World set to convert to flac in order to tag with ReplayGain.

There are several issues revealed in this scenario.

1) While Pono Music World computes ReplayGain for Apple Lossless files, it does not appear to tag them (if the Pono reads ReplayGain tags from Apple Lossless fixing this would eliminate the need to convert to flac.

2) When Pono Music World makes its space estimate for syncing Apple Lossless converted to FLAC it assumes the files sizes will be cut in half (as if the source files were not compressed at all).  It should recognize that the source files are already compressed and the estimated space should be similar for both Apple Lossless and FLAC.  As a result, Pono Music World will try to sync many more files than will fit and run out of space in the process.

3) After the sync completes, and things refresh, it doesn't match the converted files it just synced to the source files in the Smart Playlist so it shows that it will copy everything over again, duplicating what is already on the Pono.

It should be possible to set things up this way and after syncing have it recognize that everything is synced and not try to copy everything over again.

'Delete from handheld any files not in sync list' still doesn't appear to be working (since version .40 or so). See also separate item with similar topic.

I really miss this feature as it would allow me to remove files in a dedicated playlist to make room for others on my Mac and then simply re-sync the playlist to make it happen on the Pono player (I have a playlist per disk for this purpose).

Hi...
I have "50" installed. Worked fine for awhile...

Now when it opens it works momentarily then I get the colored spinning wheel indefinitely.

Runs for hours.  Now I have no Pono Music player  :'(

Any ideas.  I am going to try "36"

I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times.  No help.  Have to force kill every time.

Using a NAS (Synology)
