Audirvana Plus 3.5

Does one need to re-enter one's credentials for streaming services and audio settings etc. after installation of the 3.5 beta?

No. Can you check the database integrity using the command in the Maintenance section of the preferences page?

 

Thanks, Damien! My question was preliminary prior to installation in a folder outside the Applications directory. All went well; both Tidal and Qobuz were loaded.

I’ve noticed that there is a lag in updating playback info in the remote, for example the progress bar and file audio parameters. This is in beta 17 and 18.

DO I need to buy another license for 3.5 now that its officially out?

 

Not if you have a license for 3.x.

I’ve encountered a strange condition with 3.5.7 when using the iOS app to search in Qobuz. After making a selection from the search results the screen goes dark with “loading” logo and never completes. Meanwhile Audirvana on the Mac (Mojave) freezes and continues playing until the memory is exhausted. The app must be restarted. I do not encounter this when searching in Tidal with the IOS app nor in Qobuz with the Mac app. I did not encounter this with 3.5.5.

Thanks for this report.

This is just a display issue in the settings page. The sort criteria is indeed changed to the value you set.

This is fixed for the 3.5.9 I'll release after coming back from the Munich HighEnd.

 

@damien78 I hope also that you've found a fix for the Qobuz search issues with the remote app that a few of us have reported.

It happens here on Qobuz and in local files. I don't listen to TIDAL enough to know.

 

I have never encountered this issue with hours of listening on Qobuz and Tidal. Audirvana is set up with no up-sampling or system optimization.

I don't know what causes it, but I have plenty of RAM and it happens here on my Mini which does nothing but play music and allow me to control it over the network. 

 

edit: After being on for a bit, I have 11.65GB of RAM, out of a total of 16GB, free. How much more do you think I need?

 

I have 32 GB of RAM and while playing a playlist containing 24/88 encoded files, I have ~11.6 GB of RAM used and Audirvana is consuming about 975 MB. I have a number of other processes active and have not encountered memory problems. In Audirvana I have allocated about 8.5 GB for track preloading. Hope this info is useful.

This is clearly a bug, why it happens I don't know but I am not alone in this happening, and I seriously doubt the amount of RAM is the culprit.

 

edit: That sounded harsher than I meant it to. Please accept my apologies.

 No worries; no offense taken. I understand the frustration.
