Title: SACD only first track plays using Media Center 29 on Mac
Post by: TP1964 on August 05, 2022, 11:34:57 am
I'm using Media Center 29 on my Mac and connecting to a remote library. When I do - all of my SACD ISOs only play the first track. This doesn't happen in Panel, nor in JRemote on my phone. This also doesn't happen on Media Center on my Windows 10 machine that is the main library. So I don't believe it is an issue with the file or the importation.

I feel like maybe I'm missing a setting in MC29 on the Mac - any thoughts or help would be sincerely appreciated. Thanks!

Got it - posting in case it helps someone else.

TOOLS --> OPTIONS --> Media Network --> Audio Conversion - drop down and make sure "Convert if Necessary" is selected (mine was set to "Do Not Convert")

Restart MC.

Voila - SACD ISOs play as expected.

But I don't want to listen with transcoding. (in case of converting to mp3)
I'm not good at English, so it would be my pleasure if you should read carefully and have more understandings.
I already knew this topic after version 25 released.
I have used various version of JMC.
When I connect JMC (any version 25~29; Windows10 Pro) as a server and played JMC (version 25~29; I only tested Mavericks, Mojave and Monterey IOS version; various Intel Mac book and Mac Pro) a client, SACD source played only first track. It shows track list well on client Mac but it plays only first track music. (As you knows I don't want play with transcoding(Audio Conversion)) When I play second or third track, it seems play well but I can hear only first track song.
But when I use JRiver MC (version 24 or Under 25; Win10 Pro) as a server and played then it plays SACD(ISO) source well on Mac.
Please help me.
