Taiko Audio SGM Extreme : the Crème de la Crème

Your new Totaldac reclocker has a FIFO buffer of about 2 seconds if I recall correctly, that means you will miss the first 2 seconds of a track when the samplerate changes. Indeed report in testflight and we can look into adding a track start delay option.
Hopefully you are in bed, sound asleep now, Emile. I searched the D drive (and indeed the entire computer) and was unable to find the playlists. This isn't a huge concern right now, especially in a beta release. Just put it on the list of things to look into for later releases. Thanks!
Hi always learning, I'm not sure I this will help but this is what I do... I use soundiiz.com and I export my roon playlist to a xls file, then I import it into sounding and let it convert it to qubuz and Tidal. Then I queue it up in TAS and save it as a playlist... lot of steps but it would be nice if TAS could leverage sounding. Hope that helps.
It's in Testflight. It doesn't do it with Roon and with TAS it seems to be cutting off the end of some tracks as well--but only on pieces like Pictures.
SGM Extreme made incredible record again.
I just know this fact.
Really unbelievable~!!
Congratulations, Emile~!
Congratulations, Edward~!

I remember reading about this workaround earlier in the thread; thanks for the reminder. I'll give it a try.
Yes, you would miss the last 2 seconds of the track aswell in that case as the track stop command is executed immediately while there’s still 2 seconds of music left in the Totaldac buffer.
TAS / LMS Plugin updates
Many of the you Beta Testers will have noticed a small green icon announcing the availability of updates for LMS Plugins
These updates plugins have not be tested by critical listening by the Taiko Team yet, but appear to be not SQ degrading
One thing to note with the updated plugins is that the access to Server Settings has been buried further down the menus
When you tap the 3 dots on the right of Extreme Direct status row, a smaller window now shows up with the choices
- Settings
- Information
When you tap Settings, the color selection page will open and there you can tap again on the 3 dots to see Player settings and Server settings
Under Server settings you can see and set the Playlists Folder location and other good stuff
If you tap on Information, you will see a lot of info and at the bottom you will see there is a User Guide for Material Skin

Hi Ed,
Out of curiosity why would "many" see the green icon at player settings, should not "all" see the same thing? I don't see the green icon at player settings on my iPad/TAS???

I noticed no SQ degradation after the plug in update. After the update the green light disappeared

the other thing I found is in the server settings(these findings are in the TAS manual when we install Tidal...
If you click on server settings there first thing we see at the top is "basic settings"...if you click the "down arrow" to the right of basic settings another window opens and if you scroll down there is a button for "software updates"
Yesterday however when I was playing music I noticed that green lit button by the 3 dots to the right of "extreme status" I had no idea what it was an when I clicked it, it said "software updates available and told me that it was for "plugins". There was a button below that that said "click to update". I did that and the update was done in under a minute. I received a message that then told me I was disconnected from TAS, I chose "serial player" and turned it on and everything was working fine. Listening for a few hours I personally could not notice any adverse sound changes

Thx Steve. I had not looked at the settings under "sw updates". You can control to ck for the updates and even check to have them downloaded automatically. Learn something new everyday
Roon doesn't do this because there is no track stop command? It's pretty unpleasant. Can i defeat the buffer in the Totaldac? Otherwise how can it be fixed?
