I find (see screenshot) "play silence at startup for hardware synchronization", which I understand plays silence when the first track is played and then if the sample rate changes, and then "do not play silence (leading and trailing), which I leave unchecked, and then there is the gapped playback between tracks, but this does not seem to actively play silence but it appears just to wait before starting the next track. Where have I not looked?

"play silence at startup for hardware synchronization" should actually play silent audio at the start of playback.

Would you need to play it every time?  Or just once per session?

The device probably has a mode the maintains power on.  Ask the mfr?

I could indeed make such a track. It would be tedious to always make it the first track "Playing Now" - would there be any way to automate that?

You could make an audio track for that purpose.

I just tried playing everything at 44.1, but that did not fix the problem, and in fact sample rate change does not seem to cause a problem at all - the would be a USB audio interface problem, and my audio interface is fine with sample rate changes. It seems, as you say, that the DS600 goes into power saving mode after a short period of non-use. What I would need is a few seconds of silence played at the beginning of any playlist.

Manual backups is a recipe for disaster, unless you're Awesome.

I like Cobian Reflector. The site seems to be down at the moment, hopefully temporary.
FreeFileSync is also very nice, and open source. Particularly good for mirroring two folders, either one-way or bidirectionally. It's similar to BeyondCompare.

There are many other backup tools with support for full/differential/mirror scheduled backups.

Try them.  The first is the one I meant.

Also try using DSP Studio > Output Settings to force everything to 16/48 or 16/44.  The problem may occur on format change.

And ask the manufacturer.

I am afraid I cannot find the option to "play leading silence". I find (see screenshot) "play silence at startup for hardware synchronization", which I understand plays silence when the first track is played and then if the sample rate changes, and then "do not play silence (leading and trailing), which I leave unchecked, and then there is the gapped playback between tracks, but this does not seem to actively play silence but it appears just to wait before starting the next track. Where have I not looked?

Thanks!

The option exists.  It's called "Play Leading Silence".  Search window at bottom of options page.

It sounds like it's going into a power saving mode, so anything that uses it might work to power it up.  You could ask the manufacturer.
