The Computer Audiophile Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Whenever I go to Tools > Network Naming, HQPlayer dives me this error. Here is a video of the action. It happens 100% of the time. Anyone seen this? @Miska? hqp.mov Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment

Miska Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Sometimes I've heard about this but never before managed to reproduce it. But now I figured out that if the forced settings dialog is canceled without selecting device and then the network naming dialog (for changing NAA's name when it's running on Linux) is opened it crashes due to null pointer. Unexpected situation... But I added a check for this case and it won't crash anymore in next release. The problem you have is that no NAA's can be found...

Now to figure out why both of my NAAs can't be found :~( Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment
Miska Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Usually either firewall blocking the traffic, or something in the network blocking multicast traffic (switch/router/accesspoint). Depending on type of your NAA, you can check if it sees the HQPlayer's discovery message, it will print out reports of such... If it reports receiving the discovery, then just the response is lost on the way back (incoming traffic back to HQPlayer).

The Computer Audiophile Posted April 26, 2017 Author Share Posted April 26, 2017 This is strange. UPnP, Ravenna, and RoonReady devices work fine. When I switch to NAA on both the microRendu and the sMS-200, the devices can't be discovered by HQP. I checked the firewall because that's what I thought as well. HQP is listed as Allow. I haven't changed anything on the network. In fact I'm using a really good network from Access Networks and I don't even have the passwords to get in. It used to work, now it doesn't. Hmmm. One thing that changed was this Windows update - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3150513/latest-compatibility-definition-update-for-windows Founder of Audiophile Style | My Audio Systems Link to comment
ted_b Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Chris, is your NAA a Windows machine (you mentioned Windows update) or a Linux one (microRedu, etc). NAA naming is supported on Windows, not in Linux. "We're all bozos on this bus"....F.T.

If it is Ubuntu or Debian based with my packaging, first check if the service is running using "sudo systemctl status networkaudiod". You can enable/disable the service with "sudo systemctl enable networkaudiod" or "sudo systemctl disable networkaudiod". This controls whether it is started at boot time. Note that if GUI desktop is installed, by default network configuration is managed by NetworkManager and thus it is not up at boot time so starting the service will fail. Configuring network through /etc/network/interfaces file helps on this front - this is the default way on GUI-less Ubuntu Server or Debian. You can start networkaudiod manually with "sudo systemctl start networkaudiod" and stop with "sudo systemctl stop networkaudiod". To see log output, first stop the background service and then start it manually with just "networkaudiod" command on console/terminal.

Stoneleaf Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Hello Miska, love HQPlayer but I'm running into a similar problem as our founder here. Today (5/10/17) as I try to open HQPlayer I am getting the same "HQPlayer-desktop.exe has stopped working" dialogue box, only in my case the program is not opening at all. I am running Win10 x64 and connect via USB to a Marantz HD-Dac1. Everything has been running great for months, however Windows did update for me last night (5/9/17). I'm guessing something in this update broke me. Any chance you can help me out? Link to comment

wolft Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Hello, Windows 10 Pro (x64) with KB4019472 installed: Please install the 32 bit version of HQPlayer 3.16.1 and you may have no trouble. This solves also the problem on Windows 10 Build 16188 (latest Insider build). Best regards Wolft Link to comment
