Thanks for the tip, this is very useful.

Thanks for that tip. This will save lots of time.

You say "Regarding the soundquality,.I experience a little less “flesh and blood”, but it can also be normal variations from day to day." can you give examples of what you mean? Do you mean detail? Tone? It's worth noting that many/most hi fi systems have a "warming up" period from switch-on...

Thanks for clarifying this, it's appreciated. Maybe this could be a Feature Request? Being able to do this at album level could save the user a lot of time in editing metadata.

I have several albums, ripped from classical CDs, where there are 2 or more "artists", e.g. a singer & a pianist. How do I get the InnuOS catalogue system to list each of these 2 people separately in the "Artists" list? I've tried just listing their names separated by commas, ampersands or...

For any sound level below 100%, the server will have to do this digitally. For PCM audio this will reduce the number of bits representing each sample, reducing the precision of the samples. No doubt InnuOs does this in a sophisticated/smooth way, but the resolution will be lower. You might not...

When ripping problematical CDs, I've found that using different hardware can help. While ripping my CD collection (500+ CDs) I sometimes has to rip some tracks on my current PC & some on my old PC then merge the 2 sets of files. I use dBpowerAmp for ripping on Windows which works very well &...

Thanks for clarifying this. I've switched between the two settings but haven't noticed any difference so far. Will now leave it set to Low as recommended.

Thanks for updating us on the sound quality issue. Looks as if it's nothing to do with the Sense app - which is good news. Sorry to hear about your Chord DAC. Just out of curiosity, which model is it? I've had Chord DACs for the last 7 years with no problems so far. Currently have a Qutest.

As a general point, I think it would be useful to provide a way for users to go back to the previous 2.x version, if they don't like the sound quality after the 3.x upgrade. If the app has changed the sound of somebody's system to the extent they're no longer happy with it, this simple step...

I'd be very interested to hear what has caused your change in sound quality, when this problem is solved. Is this with streamed music, or with (e.g.) FLAC files you've downloaded?
