Hi Peter,
The Tidal PC is a Windows 8 laptop with XXHE 2.09 on it.
I get the attached error when downloading the MQA files. But it is only about the Sample Rate logo....although.
For test I have unpacked the dll's from the 208VCRT-x64.rar. But that did not change anyting...
Maybe I have the reinstall XXHE on the laptop?
regards

Thanks Peter,
RTFM for me! We call this a PICNIC, problem in chair not in computer. I will use no coverart with the xxosk or alt-keys. See if the burst of noise will show again.
Regards, Arjan

Hi Peter,
A bit late my reaction, but was to busy. I use now the same settings as in your signature. And maybe this is another topic.....but.
With coverart Alt-U is working fine both with keys and the XXOSK.
Without coverart the music stops when using Alt-U (Alt-D seems not to work...) both with keys and XXOSK.
But no burst of noise yet.
To answer your question, I was not using Alt-U before, and I never used coverart. Only sometimes.....
regards, Arjan

Hi Peter,
To answer d. When I just play one track I always click, stop after track, button below unattended button. So it just runs only one track unattended and after the track has ended the UI comes back again. So I did that for one track of the album and after that I selected the last track (and because it is the last track the stop after track ended is not needed) and started play again. Then the burst of noise came.
I use the stop after track button, never Alt-K!
Maybe important: I tried Alt-U but music just stopped..... Although Alt-X to go back to UI works fine.
Will look into the other questions this evening.
regards, Arjan

Hi Peter,
Just had the burst of noise again, 2 times at the beginning of a track. After that the track went on without any issues.
I was running unattended a track from an album. After it stops I selected the last track of the album and started again unattended. The music started and directly burst of noise 2 times with small amount of sound in between.
My current settings are in my signature.
regards, Arjan

Hi Peter,
I use the same Q1/xQ1 setting. Changed to SFS 1.5, from 2.
Last 2 days no burst of noise. But it was also more regular listening to complete albums.
It might have to do with using Alt-X and testing different parts of tracks. Because when it happened I was testing the SQ for different tubes in the power amp. And I did that by playing parts of different tracks of albums. I select a track, use end after track and start unattended play. When the music starts I use Alt-X to get back into the UI so I can use the sliders to set the volume or stop playing. But then again the burst of noise only happens 2 times....... so it is rare and difficult to reproduce. To be honest I also do not want to reproduce this, because it is scary. So hopefully when it happens again I remember the scenario that led to this.
Regards, Arjan

Hi Peter,
Had the same issue of burst of noise now 2 times with 2.08a. The first time it was 2 bursts after each other. The second time was just one burst. The second time (I do not recall the first time) the music stopped after the burst. I just restarted the track and no issues.
It is a bit scary. Any clues on this issue? I have never heard this kind of noise burst before. I know of cracks and other short ticks but this is different. My SFS is at 2 so not long but also not ultra short. Should it be longer, but the burst will be longer too. Or shorter?
regards, Arjan
