Yucca06 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Where could I download the 3.1.1 version, as 3.0.7 and 3.0.99 are crashing immediately ? (I can't even use the update menu).

Yucca06 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 ...ok, Îm stupid. I searched everywhere, as the betas had usually a different page for DL. ...it crashed also. I believe I'll have to trash and rebuild the SQLite base...

Yucca06 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Done. Still no AU. And another bug : it plays alsways the next track. I think I never saw a A+ version in my system bugged like this one...and I'm a customer from the beginning (the 0.x.x versions...)

I think I never saw a A+ version in my system bugged like this one...and I'm a customer from the beginning (the 0.x.x versions...) Posted that for another user who wanted to start from scratch... There are many things you can trash for specific problems. This is what i found to reset pretty much A+ like new... If you have Playlists that are important export them first to desktop and save them in a folder... when A+ is reset, you can re-import them back. sadly to this day, the folders they were in is not back, you have to do it again... Before doing this, maybe you should not connect after deleting those files to Roon or others... Install A+ alone with your database... if working, log to Roon or else after Apple hide the Home Folder in User Library at some time depending on OS System... When you have clicked your Home Folder, and cannot see the Library Folder in there, just do a ''cmd J'' to show the folder settings preferences and see at the bottom... click Show Library Folder and then you'll have access to the rest forever Starting for new A+: Go to the main Library Folder... PrivilegedHelperTools folder... Trash All the files in that folder (that folder install SysOptimizer) Go to the main Library Folder...LaunchDaemons folder... Trash All the files in that folder for Audirvana (SystemOptimizer and prefs files) Go to User... Home Folder... Library... Applications Support... Audirvana Folder... Trash All the files in that folder (that is your database of music, back it up!) Go to User... Home Folder... Library... Preferences... trash com.audirvana.Audirvana-Plus.plist in that folder (those are A+ software preferences) Go to User... Home Folder... Library... Caches… com.audirvana.Audirvana-Plus trash the files in that folder Restart MAC just to be sure... This will reset pretty much Audirvana like new. When choosing library at first it will sync in top right main window under the logo... LET IT GO, even better don't try to adjust windows or edit files, even playing music while it is not finished... you'll see the progress bar going... Could be long the first time depending on how large your library is, and MAC is fast or not... go to sleep... then see If You Got Ears, You Gotta Listen – Captain Beefheart MacMini 2018, 4xi3 3.6GHz, SSD, 20Gb, macOS Sonoma > Audirvana Origin > Wyred DAC2 DSD Special Edition > Proceed AMP2 > Focal Cobalt 826 Signature Series > Audirvana Remote > iPhone 13 Link to comment
Yucca06 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Thanks, I know I can do this (and did it already a few times). I think the problems are mainly about the 3.1 , as all worked perfectly since 2.6, but I'll try it again, anyway...

tipunch Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 @damien78 Hello, In the next version, you could implement the decoding of the HDCD, because only 2 or 3 DAC still offer this function... And Audirvana would be the ONLY reader to have this function. What do you think? List of HDCD-encoded Compact Discs Best regards Link to comment

When I click on a track, it plays about 2" of it, then goes to the next track and plays it normally. It does it with each track, so I can't hear the 1st track of each album .

DomieMic65 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Sadly I will stop using A+ 3.1.X Returning from about a months absence back home I hoped that, under the hood, the 3.1 would solve the problematic reproduction and vast RAM usage of the A+ 3.0.7 and tried to play some music.. after some minutes of 16/44.1 files playing I had a very distorted sound and great pick in RAM usage. I had communication with Damien about the issue before leaving but no solution found until I didn’t get any replies! I would like to use A+ but there is no way! Back to JRiver or A+ 2.6.8 sometimes!!

Charente Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 @DomieMic65 Sorry to hear about your issues. I can't answer your distorted sound issue ... but how much memory do you have on your Mac ? Audirvana runs in about 400mb on my MacMini and I keep the memory allocation for pre-load quite small (in preferences). It works fine for me with regular 16/44.1 Flacs.

eternaloptimist Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 I am loving Audirvana 3.11. Recently went from v 2.x. Have multiple players.... Roon, HQPlayer, JRiver.... have even trialed Amarra 4Luxe (nice, but feels beta). The sound just brings a smile to my face. Hard to quantify why. Am just enjoying the music. In the mornings, I often stream internet radio. I would love this to be possible with Audirvana. At the moment, I switch to JRiver or Roon.

Charente Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 @DomieMic65 I've looked through the other thread and some good suggestions made there. I do find it rather bizarre that even with a complete 'clean-out' of Audirvana and a fresh install (with DB rebuild) the exact same problem re-appears ... and the memory usage figures you gave sound enormous to me.
