naim uniti and flac

Post by steakfrit » Sat May 21, 2011 12:28 pm

hello,

i use twonky with naim uniti to listen Flac files.
it's mostly work very well but except for some files:

i always ripped CD with the same software (dbPoweramp) with the same option (Flac).
Some flac can't be read by uniti (bad format)

these flac work well on usb disk plugged on uniti.

strange...

a clue ?

Not too surprising since some devices use different player software for USB and networked media.

Flac issue seems to be a naim issue : image stored in id tag must not be too large.
This tip works expecting new firmware.

I've tried it's fine. Naim uniti works well with twonky.
