I love my N200, and it's not going anywhere, but IMHO Aurender really need to concentrate more time and money on software development and less on expanding an already convoluted product line. The new app is indeed so full of bugs that it shouldn't have been released, or rather, it shouldn't have been presented as a ready to go replacement for V3. The whole thing is a Beta. Hats off to anyone who's willing to persevere with it and report bugs. I was also expecting far more ambitious features from such a revamp. They've fallen way behind Innuos, who didn't even have an app a couple of years ago. Fortunately, I'm an album guy and I'm not particularly looking for a Roon-like experience, but others are, and UI is a fundamental selling point for any streamer.

Got a new N200. Currently cloning my music from my old N100. Both are connected to the gigabit network. I'm transferring about 800GB. Things started well but the Aurender display has been stuck on "Cloning 24% 2hr 14m" for a couple of hours now. Should I be concerned? EDIT: Never mind. Browsing the unit from my Mac shows we've gone from Portishead to RATM in the last few minutes. Safe to say we can ignore the N200 screen. 👍

Trying to apply the MQA update to my N100H but the purchase fails saying "Your purchase could not be completed" then "Software update failed to install". Any ideas? Credit card details are up to date on the app store. I'm running the latest firmware and app version.

Thanks. Updated and running well. Looks really fresh in white. 👍

Anyone here using an N100H with an iPad Mini 2 by any chance? I'm tempted to update the firmware/app/ios to check out the new Conductor features but I'm reluctant to as everything has worked flawlessly on whatever older version I'm using.

Use MakeMKV to "backup" the whole blu-ray to your hard drive, this will bypass the copyright protection. Then open the backup folder with DVD Audio Extractor and select the files to convert to FLAC.

Yes

Quick question, maybe someone here can help. When trying to access the media server on my N100H from my Oppo UDP-205 it keeps telling me the username/password is incorrect, when it isn't. It used to work. Only thing I've changed recently is my router. I can still access the Aurender from my Mac. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Apologies if it's been posted already but does anyone know what size connector the power supply has? It can't be the standard 2.1 x 5.5mm as I've bought two different 15V 1A units off ebay and neither fit.

Success!

Holding the front button for 5 seconds puts it in sleep mode apparently.

I went through all that yesterday, thanks. It seems the Aries is constantly checking the media server, much like Sonos does. Annoying. UPDATE: Aha. Didn't know you could force it to sleep. I'll try this.

So I installed Minimserver and my NAS still won't sleep. It's definitely the Aries as it always shows as connected in DSM and is shown regularly accessing the Music folder in logs. I emailed Auralic who replied "The Aries will check the connection every so often so there is no way around this." I'm slightly puzzled as to why this doesn't happen to everyone here. Do you switch the mini off somehow?

Will do, thanks. Yes I am using Lightning server.
