I confess I didn't read the notes  . Anyways, this version sound quite good so I put up it that little annoyance.

Hi Peter,

I too experience similar playback problem.  Music will continuously clicked.  It went away when I raised Q1 from 0 to 1.  Not sure if this is related to your problem. 

However, I still get a single "click" in between the time an old track ends and a new one starts. This new problem only started with version 4-0.

OK that worked!  Now activation code is no longer working.

Hi Peter,

I've built a new computer using ASUS P67 motherboard running Windows 7 64 and when I reinstalled XX, I was presented with this error when running for the first time.

Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT:0x80040154
(REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG))

Pls help!

Hi Mani,

I played with the signal voltage setting found that the Lavry was impartial to either setting.  It seems the Lavry was designed to take in both "professional" and "consumer."  I keep it at professional since my Lavry is a professional studio DA.  Also, I have this belief that the AES 5V signal is better for long cable throws.

However, I also have 2 channels from RME-32 allocated to send Dolby Digital, Dolby Surround or DTS data to a Yamaha for home theater.  The Yamaha sometimes have problem with the professional setting.

Oh.  OK.  I usually just "pull" the WAV or FLAC files from my music folder into XXhighend. Well, thank for clarifying what this file does.

It is written to the folder where my music is kept. For example: music is in "D:\my music\Beethoven\Symphonies No 1\."  After playing, XX will create XXAnalysis.dat in this folder rather than in XXhighend directory.  If I open another music folder, the same file will be created in that folder too, thus I'll have to delete this file from every folder I play music from.

This does not happen in older XX versions.

Hi Peter,

Each time I play an album XX will leave a file named "XXAnalysis.dat" in my music folder.  How do I stop XX from doing that?

Hi guys,

I also recently transfered by music library to a NAS (Synology DS410).  My first try at placing my music in a NAS was to a Synology 209J which was quite problematic.  The issue turned out to be slow transfer speed.  When I used the DS410, all those problems disappears.

Could it be possible that the difference in sound quality you experienced is due to your computer still processing read/write from NAS while playing music at the same time?

After reading Per's comment, I realized that I performed several Microsoft Updates and upgrading my Avast anti-virus.  It is possible that either change caused some conflict.  After some frustrating hours of tweeking, I decided to do it the hard way.  Since I have a Microsoft Technet Subscription, I downloaded Vista Ultimate SP2 and did an "upgrade."  My computer went through several more hours of purgatory, then bit after midnight, Vista screen popped up and now XX plays again!  It seem the problem lies with Vista OS.

BTW, Vista now loads faster, but still scratching my head as to what went wrong.

Per and Peter, thanks for your help.

Hi Peter et al,

Lately my computer has been acting strange.  XX doesn't play anymore.  After pressing play, a few seconds later I get the error:

 "Engine #3 did not start within the expected time!"

I suspected problem with my drives, but other players like foobar has no problem playing.  Any idea what's wrong?  This problem is quite frustrating...especially when I now depend on XX to pass the evenings. 

I'll wait for the next version now that I know that I need to click on a track once to start playing.  Thanks.

Hi Peter,

When I copied the new version into an existing older version of XX (rather than deleting all files in older version) XX sometimes works.  And when it does work, I noticed that the "No Track Given Error" has been solved.  I know you put alot into solving that one, so thanks.

Peter,


I tried 9b and am getting this error when I drag music files into playlist window and press play:

"Unhandled exception has occurred in your application.  If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue.  If you click Quit, the application will close immediately.

Specified argument was out of the range of valid values.
Parameter name: rowIndex."


Attached are two files:
1. Screen Shot
2. Log that appeared when I press on the "details" button inbedded in the error msg window.

Hi Peter,

I've attached the log result of two songs I playing.  When the first song finished, the error msg would pop up and after a long period (more than one minue), XX will continue to play second sound.

Also, something is happening with W-8a with new engine.  When I play "unattended," I immediately get this error msg:

"Unhandled exception has occurred in your application.  If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue.  If you click Quit, the application will close immediately.

Specified argument was out of the range of valid values.
Parameter name: rowIndex."
