New OSX Opensource audiophile player : Audirvana

[happykev]

Has anyone else noticed that iTunes basically becomes inoperable once you install Audirvana?

 

I shut down Audirvana and launched iTunes to try to play a song and iTunes basically rapidly skips through the song list and Audirvana then launches to play a song.

 

Really weird and frustrating. Guess I'll be uninstalling Audirvana.

 

Is it supposed to essentially take the place of iTunes?!?!

Yeah I did have the plugin installed so I deleted it and itunes started working again.

 

Thx-

I installed the most recent version of Audirvana and am not getting any sound from the player. I set it to use my Built In Mac output and Apple Core Audio as the Sample Rate Converter.

 

While trying to play a track, I go into the Audio Midi settings and it says Soundflower is currently the default output at 32/44.1, which I did not set that way.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks!

anyone know what might cause the constant CPU Over message?

 

I turned Integer mode off and Max I/IO Buffer is set to on.

 

Sample Rate conversion is set to Apple Core Audio.

 

I played a 24/96 Apple Lossless file and made it through the first 4 mins of a song with no problems. After that it constantly skipped the rest of the song.

 

Should I quit all of my other open programs? I have 2.5 GB of RAM in my MacBook, so I figure that should be enough!

I deleted both usbmuxd files and then installed Mac OSX 10.6.7 and rebooted my Mac. The files are still gone so I may have solved any sound degradation issues myself.

 

GIve it a whirl!

So it appears that when I removed all the usbmuxd files on my Mac, my iPhone no longer shows up in iTunes.

 

Does anyone know how I can gain access to this file so I can restore it back into the appropriate folders?

 

Should I simply reinstall iTunes?

 

Riot Nrrrd made reference to this in a recent post.

 

Thanks-

Luckily I've got a Time Capsule, so I was able to run Time Machine and restore these two usbmuxd files to their respective folders.

 

Rebooted and now my iPhone appears in iTunes. PHEW!

 

Gotta love Time Machine!

 

Do I understand correctly that these usbmuxd files cause the sound quality in Audirvana to diminish?

 

Thanks-

Anyone else notice a weird glitch when headphones are connected to a Mac?

 

If I connect my 'phones prior to launching Audirvana, I get no sound once I try to play a tune in Audirvana. If I pull the phones from the jack and re-insert, I get sound..

 

Could you please look into this, Damien?
