Certainly that's fair, will see if we can get to the bottom of it. Though keep in mind, the UPnP in the Plinius is still the one ultimately doing the playback. SenseUPnP implies streaming from one streamer over to another streamer via UPnP. Compared to taking the direct audio output which is an...

You could try connecting the Plinius via Ethernet to the Streamer port on the ZENmini. It is a bridged gigabit connection, not an audio output, but could be worth testing as a variable. This does assume the two devices are near each other, and if that is the case then as mentioned before, i'd...

This sounds fine! This should achieve what you are looking for. Yes, the USB backup should be able to restore into any Innuos product (that has storage inside it)

Apologies for delay responding, very busy in build up to Munich show... On this point: This is normal; SenseUPnP config no longer exists on this menu, this was changed in a software update a few months ago so this is expected. It only exists in the Audio section as per your other screenshot...

The Backup Restore function is for a few reasons, primarily in case the hard drive has been changed and you simply need to re-upload your library exactly as it was. It also lends itself to when you are moving away from one Innuos server and moving up to a newer one - its a good way to migrate...

The underlying issue here is that the ZENith Mk3 will have to be your 'active' library because that is the one you are still ripping music into. Using the Backup to NAS mechanism is intended to be a simple way to incrementally keeping moving those new CD rips over into the internal storage of...

There has been a few reports of this and believe it is an issue whereby, as you say, the player comes to a stop rather than skipping. This is now added on the Known Issues but is already being looked into by the development team.

This approach is going to be very carefully managed. Unfortunately, you cannot perform backups of only single folders, it must backup the whole library. So you have a choice, use a computer to just copy and paste that one ripped CD over, or Clear Music Library on the Next-Gen and perform the...

We've had several reports that when a track is no longer available from a streaming service, this will cause the queue to pause rather than simply skipping over the unavailable track and move on to the next available one in the queue. This is especially notable in longer playlists where the odds...

You can create a new folder on the Next Gen via your PC, but you should be fine to just go ahead and choose either the music or unsorted folder and just carry on from there - the system will make its own new backup folder in the process. There are credentials to get into any Innuos system now...

The upgrade rule traditionally has been that the cost is simply the difference in RRP between what you currently have subtracted from what you will be upgrading to, plus shipping and labour. So for example, if the RRP of the device you have is 10,000, and you are upgrading to a better version...

We will amend that to be clearer - in this particular case, PULSE series is streamer only, and has no server functionality. It needs internal storage to be able to rip a CD which is not a feature the PULSE series has. Without internal storage, there is nowhere to store the CD rip as Sense does...

The PULSE series is not capable or ripping CDs which is why you cannot find an option for this. You will need to perform the CD ripping on your PC using separate software, and then copy those CDs on to a USB drive. Perhaps consider a dedicated NAS drive to place the files on as you will find...

Hi Francois, it is not the size of the file that is the issue but the fact that file is likely a .ISO or 'image' file that needs a .cue sheet to go with it for playback. Sense does not support these kinds of files, so you would need to use a piece of software like CUETools to extract out the...
