I believe this behavior also manifest itself after a Spotify Connect session. For example, if I have updated my NAS Audio Library, it takes forever for the new addition to appear. Also, deleting tracks on the left side of the App,(i.e., an entire album) takes far longer than it should. This is my work around: I power cycle the Lumin U1. The App returns to normal operation until my next Airplay session. I don't remember this kind of behavior before with my A1, although I am doing a lot more Airplay streaming these days. Any thoughts? @wklie FWIW, it appears that a Refresh/Restart of Minimserver has fixed the problem. I've not been able to replicate it since I did that. Airplay in conjunction with Lumin App is working fine now. "The function of music is to release us from the tyranny of conscious thought", Sir Thomas Beecham. Link to comment

It is easier to find them on the app than in my shelves. All my albums are ripped CD's from my collection (took about two years) except for later purchased down load files. On the app they are sorted by artist, tune, genre, composer, year and so on that I can sort from This overview is impossible to have in the shelves. The more albums the more imoortant to gav good order. I'm also picky on cover image quality. In most cases I have to google up images with higher resolution. Normally I put them 1000x1000.

I was about to make a warranty claim for my U1 when I went to use my RCA SPDIF and nothing happened. I had been using BNC and made a change to the system. I remembered the option to turn off outputs just in time. I now have labels on the outputs that I have turned off, although I doubt I will ever make that mistake again.

In addition to turning off unused outputs, you may turn off Roon Ready if not using Roon, Spotify Connect if not using Spotify, and Lumin Streaming if not using AirPlay.

The blue display's technology on my old McIntosh MX-150 surround sound processor developed "wear" where segments of the display that were never or rarely used were dim in comparison to segments that were used often or were on all the time. I am not sure if the display technology utilized by Lumin is the same as that used by McIntosh but, for that reason, I rarely have the display in my X1 on. Maybe @wklie can tell us if the Lumin display is prone to this phenomenon or not and put my concerns to bed once and for all.

thingswelike Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 The screen is OLED and can have image burn under extreme circumstances. I went through a period (maybe a year) of switching off a load of electronics at night (including my network switch but not LUMIN) and I can now see a negative "Network error" text on the screen. Unfortunately, I never noticed it was showing that message as the switch to turn everything off at night (and on again in the morning) was in a different room. Also, because I had been taking photos of the LUMIN screen, it was set to 'bright'. Oops. Liam 1 Associated with LUMIN - The Audiophile Network Music Player. Link to comment
BlueSkyy Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Thanks for the confirmation and sorry to hear about your experience with the "Network Error" burn-in. I think the old McIntosh blue display was some sort of dot matrix electro-luminescent technology. I was so OCD, still am I guess, that I would cycle through all the display settings to energize all the unused segments (or dots) and it would eventually return to uniformity. I will continue to keep the X1's display off and in the rare instances that I do have it on will keep it dim.

rodrigaj Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Fortunately, the Lumin display shows nothing that isn't on the in the Lumin App. If you listen to anything with a longish track title, such as classical music, it is even more annoying. I leave my U1 off all of the time, it's pretty useless to me. "The function of music is to release us from the tyranny of conscious thought", Sir Thomas Beecham. Link to comment
