Melvin Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 snip .. Just sent them an email - maybe they need to hear from people to know there are some overlooked issues. I couldn't agree more. Link to comment

church_mouse Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Also, having some weird occasional quirks that I think might be related to controlling PM on a headless MacMini via Screen Sharing or my version of iTunes. Sometimes it takes more than one click on play/pause to be recognized. Yes, I have this issue too whether headless or connected directly. It seems that PM3, in taking over play from i-Tunes, is taking focus away from i-Tunes, so the first click on the pause button simply brings focus back on to i-Tunes and the second click will then work to pause. (I am using latest version of i-Tunes on Yosemite). Resetting preferences made no difference to any of my issues.

AudioDoctor Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Try delete and reinstall then delete preferences as I have detailed above. Hope that wotks for you Not sure what you detailed above, but it seems to be you were able to get the program open. I can not do that. No electron left behind. Link to comment
BettyCahill Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Thanks for sharing, will see to it. Link to comment
Raym87 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Not sure what you detailed above, but it seems to be you were able to get the program open. I can not do that. Detailed above : see my previous post but for clarity I will reiterate. Delete pure music from applications folder. Reinstall Open pure music. (If you can) Select preferences In the bottom right of preferences window select default. Select to either keep or remove licence info This will delete the preferences Hopefully this will allow you a working program. All I can say is that it cleared my issues with the non visible pure music window. Im just wondering if you have the disappearing window problem as I did. The menu appeared in the toolbar and the dot next to the icon in the dock was there but there was no puremusic window at all. When you try to run pure music, do the menu options for pure music appear in the toolbar and do you get the dot next to pure music icon in the dock (if you have placed an icon in the dock that is) to show that it is active.

Tone Deaf Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share Posted October 17, 2015 v3.0.2 is out. The "auto repeat" issue has been fixed along with other issues. Release notes: 3.0.2 • Improvements to Streamthrough synchronization. Option to use Aggregate Device for Streamthrough active synchronization to eliminate sync issues / distortion (instructions for configu- ration in Streamthrough section of User’s Guide). Default for this feature is “on” with name of de- vice called “Streamthrough” • Improvements to CPU footprint optimization, now bypasses Scrubbing if iTunes is not in front (can’t scrub the track position unless iTunes is in front anyway). If using iOS Remote and need scrubbing, iTunes must be kept in front, which is the default launch configuration: Pure Music brings iTunes to the front / focus after launching, and iTunes remains in front unless the user manu- ally reshuffles windows • Modified criteria used to determine if Scrubbing should automatically be bypassed: namely, iTunes must be in front, and Pure Music not in Streamthrough mode • Fixed regression issue which caused Streamthrough output to be silent on certain model Macs • Fixed issue with playback not stopping at end of an album when in Album view in iTunes • Fixed issue with playback spuriously skipping ahead in a track • Fixed issue causing track info to be displayed in meter bar despite display being disabled by user • Modified “Reset Window Positions” to be the same as clicking Defaults... (which resets all prefer- ences) except that only the window positioning parameters are affected A message for our DSD Power Users: gapless DSD playback is still undergoing QC testing. We have decided to release 3.0.2 with improvements that will benefit many users, rather than release DSD gapless without complete testing, which is proving to be very time consuming. Thank you for your patience. Please send an email to Channel D support if you would like to participate in testing this feature in a beta release.

Tone Deaf Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share Posted October 17, 2015 Unfortunately gapless is still not working for me. Just curious. Are you using integer mode? And have you tried using the "link to next track" work around?

Melvin Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Just curious. Are you using integer mode? And have you tried using the "link to next track" work around? I've tried everything I can think of including linking tracks. Same occurs with or without integer mode in play. This isn't the first time gapless has broken with a new release of PM. It's too bad because I really like it otherwise. Rob has been very responsive via email BTW, yet nothing has worked. Link to comment
Melvin Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Back to 2.0.4 and gapless works again. Oh well. Link to comment

Thank you for the reply. Seems you've tried everything I tried, and more. Sorry that gapless isn't working for you. Pure Music isn't without it's quirks, but I have managed to make it work for me. I do like the much faster start up times with PM3.

Panelhead Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Back to 2.0.4 and gapless works again. Oh well. Nothing has changed except PM, OS, and iTunes.

Outlaw Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 I gave up on Pure Music.Tired of there customer support or should I say lack of. Link to comment
ajoe Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 I had high hopes and downloaded the trial about a week ago. It crashed 4 times before I could get 3 full albums imported. Mac OS X 10.11 on 2014 Mini with 16 GB RAM. Link to comment
AudioDoctor Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I was able to get PM3 to start by finding the preference file and deleting it. Now when I try to play Gapless, it stutters and I am not sure of the sound quality yet. No electron left behind. Link to comment
church_mouse Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I have found that if I drag a gapless album in to a flat (non-smart) playlist then gapless works but not if I play it from my smart playlist which filters to show all my aiff rips. (Seems linked to how i-Tunes gives each track an index number). Churchmouse (Tapatalk) David MacMini, Mytek Manhattan I DAC, Avantone The Abbey Monitors, Roon Link to comment

Hopefully this will will point to a fix for Rob. Hopefully, the double-press for play/pause will be fixed - as well as the playback skipping when switching from playlist view to main library view...
