Title: playlists don't continue beyond a few songs
Post by: rhkrhk on July 12, 2021, 05:47:39 pm

Playlists just stop playing - in some playlists after 1-2 tracks, in others after 10-15. Tried trouble shooting. Turned off video, set some parameter to more stable rather than more responsive. No help.  Nothing wrong with the individual files - they play just fine on the default player.   Log attached. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!!

setup:  Windows 10; MC 25; PSAudio Direct Stream Bridge to preamp to amp & distant speakers.

I tried downloading MC 28 - that version doesnt even recognize the PSAudio Bridge,  so I gave up on it and returned to ver 25

Does PS Audio have any recommendations for setup?

Is this the DAC?

What happens if you connect directly to it?

Is this the Bridge?

Does it support UPnP or DLNA?

Yes, it supports UPnP.

Please read this:  https://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/DLNA

It is probably a UPnP renderer.  You can play to it from MC, using UPnP / DLNA.

Download their manual here:

and read it.

Then use AndrewFG's DMRA tool to analyze the renderer.

Yeah. But first try right clicking on the Renderer in MC and Disable SetNext support. Also try Ignore Transport Events.

Suggestions from JimH and AndrewFG  (including the recommended settings in his database for the PSAudio) were all followed - and system now works well.
I've run the problem playlist for over 6 hours and over 110 tracks with no problem. Many thanks to these gurus.
