tonitoman Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Hi all, first time setup... Why does it say no sonic orbiter OS server found on network? Is there a problem with the OS? I updated, rebooted, rebooted modem. All is connected. Dac is cosecant wavelength. Link to comment

It’s showing a microRendu as a network player, assuming this what you are connecting to, all is good. If you are connecting a mR nothing will show up in the music server section, the mR is a network player, not a server.

tonitoman Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 OK. Thank you for your recommendation. I was looking to use my existing PC with JRIVER or another software. Link to comment

Manage the Rendu and go to Settings / MPD DLNA and press Save. This should allow you to see it in JRiver on your computer.

left channel Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 @tonitoman do you own a microRendu? If so then follow @vortecjr's instructions above. I don't understand why you are asking me and others here. Everyone wants to date my avatar. Link to comment
tonitoman Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 HI Left Channel, I'm seeing it now. Thanks. Now the DAC is missing. Can't see it anymore. It isn't a JRiver issue I think as it appeared in the settings before I connected to the network. I rebooted the Microrendu, tried various orders of unplugging, but no luck... Dac works fine directly in PC. Any advice? Regards Link to comment
left channel Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 @tonitoman give us the make and model of your DAC, and in your reply tag @vortecjr not me. Everyone wants to date my avatar. Link to comment

I also went in APPS and tried DAC diagnostic and nothing happens. The Microrendu appears in JRiver. When I reboot, at least 2 times my DAC stays active. I'd say 4 times it stays in passive mode because nothing is sent to it . DAC tests fine straight from PC. I'm really out of ideas. Regards Link to comment

The Cosecant has an automatic sleep mode, which may be confusing the microRendu as it boots up. If you can disable that feature the problem would probably go away. If not, there may be an upgrade to the microRendu OS available that improves the situation, but you'll have to ask Sonore about that. Meanwhile be patient, leave both units on and attached, and they should sync up eventually. Everyone wants to date my avatar. Link to comment

Regards You don’t need the custom DAC setup and it’s probably best if you delete it. As for DAC discovery try this: To verify if the Rendu sees yours DAC go to Apps / DAC Diagnostics. If the DAC is not listed you may have to remove and reconnect the USB cable, then refresh the page. If your DAC is still not listed try power cycling the DAC followed by power cycling the Rendu and then go to Apps / DAC Diagnostics.

asiano Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 I have an Anthem STR Preamplifier that has a built-in USB DAC (XMOS USB Audio 2.0 ST 308F). I have a Sonore microRendu (software version 2.6) feeding the USB input on the DAC. Anthem represents that the unit accepts native DSD, but if I setup the microRendu for native playback, DSD is no longer an option in Roon’s audio setup and it converts the DSD to PCM. If I select DoP in the microRendu, DSD is available in the Roon Audio setup and DSD tracks are not converted to PCM. If I put together a playlist and the signal transitions from PCM to DSD, there is no issue. However, when the signal transitions from DSD to PCM, I hear a loud pop. Loud enough that I am concerned that it could harm my speakers. Is there any way to remedy this issue? Link to comment
Distinctive Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Hi, I have the üRendu with the latest firmware onboard (v.2.6). I continue to get errors when connecting to an USB DAC. Have tried two different DAC’s and two different (short) USB cables. Sometimes the Diagnostic app recognize any of the two DAC’s as generic, but normally not (just says connect your DAC). Correct DAC input (USB) is selected. Different power scemes and unplugging doesn’t seem to make a difference. Please see appended screenshot. Please advice. EDIT: Two more screenshots showing that once every now and then it works. Then I shut down the uR and restart it - back to square one regarding lost DAC When one DAC is dicovered, all DACS are discovered and vice versa, so it is not the DAC, nor the cable that pose a problem.

Distinctive Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 No ideas, Jesus? Spent the whole afternoon troubleshooting. Used custom DAC, reporting hw:0,0 in settings when connection is successful. hw:0,0 defaults the output device to USB (non-selectable). This is how it looks like when it works and then it is stable until reboot. This is driving me nuts and I want to throw it out of my window! ? Link to comment
pwhinson Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Every now and then the microrendu just stops playing. THEN, when I try to recommence play, it goes to the next track, where it stays, for about 3 seconds, then onto the next track for another 3 seconds, then on and on until it reaches the end of the playlist never PLAYING anything. Rebooting the device doesn't always solve the problem. The only thing that seems to dependably solve the problem is unplugged the unit from power, then plugging it back in again. BUT that's getting REALLY tiresome. Suggestions? The dac is a directstream jr. Link to comment
Distinctive Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Maybe I posted this in the wrong thread. I recognize that I am not alone with my DAC discovery issues. I reverted to standard settings (no custom DAC). I am also using an adapter instead of an USB cable. No remedy. https://www.computeraudiophile.com/forums/topic/49675-trouble-discovering-dac/ Link to comment
