Title: Play stops after each track on 24/88 files (also 24/96) Post by: briefremarks on March 16, 2014, 07:54:42 pm Not sure if anyone else has experienced this. I am using XXHE 1.186a on Windows 7 (Professional) laptop (Sony Vaio Z Series) with 8 GB memory. I have had no issues playing 16/44.1 files upsampled to 24/88.2 with my Empirical Audio Overdrive DAC.
Main usual settings are: Q1/3/4/5 = 6/1/1/1; SFS=2.0; Max = 60; minimized OS. However I have a problem with high resolution files: 24/96 as well as 24/88.2. Play stops between tracks. Very occasionally play will continue across tracks. If I wait a while, I will get an error saying either that "data did not arrive on time" or "Engine #4 failed to start". I've tried various settings changes as follows: - Q1 from 6 to 20 - SFS from 1.0 to 4.00 - Max size from 60 - 120 Nothing however has worked so far. I'm really new at this, so I suspect there is much to be learned, but wondering if anyone has some thoughts or has encountered (and hopefully fixed) this issue.

Try SFS=60 (to get wild) and see whether that helps. Notice that this is about loading "track parts" and that 24/88 is 3 times larger than 16/44.1; If your normal SFS=2 then SFS=6 should be able to do it theoretically, but there is some more involved. Regards, Peter |
