Taiko Audio SGM Extreme : the Crème de la Crème

[dminches]

In this case on my system the blue bar and the time counter are simply not starting. It's always after some form of me skipping a track forward or backward that initiates the non-functionality. This has been the case from day one with TAS. I've probably had to restart the Extreme 100 times since the switch to TAS.

If I was having those issues I would just run Roon assuming you had a license.

I've tried relaunching the App many times. The only thing that has worked for me is rebooting the Extreme.

It has never done this for me. I just tested it and of course it takes a few seconds for the track to start playing but it always starts up.

Something going on with your system I think and possibly your iPhone iPad or whatever you are controlling with.

Wil,

When you say you are relaunching the app, are you completely deleting the app and then using TestFlight to relaunch?

Also are you controlling with an Ipad? Android? iPhone?

That's a thought as Roon is rock solid. But TAS can work as long as I play an album and never skip forward or backward on the track queue.

 

[Rhapsody]

There is something causing it. It is not inherent to TAS to be doing this.

Yes, but rebooting the Extreme, if that’s what you are doing, is temporarily degrading the sound quality. It takes some time before things settle down. That’s been my experience.

 

[Rhapsody]

He should not have to be rebooting the extreme. TAS does not do this unless there was something causing it.

He should either just use Roon or figure out what is causing it because something is.

 

[Rhapsody]

For instance, I used to have all kinds of instabilities with TAS. I was using an Android for control. I switched to the iPhone and have never had an issue since.

I'm just closing the app and relaunching -- not deleting the app.

I'm using an iPad hardwired ethernet with a solid and fast connection.

The next time it happens, should I delete the app and reload through TestFlight?

Hi Wil,

Sorry to hear that you are experiencing trouble

The next time it happens, send me a message and I will TeamViewer in

I look forward to catching up with you and your system

Did you try a standard stock USB cable? This „sounds“ like a cable issue to me.

 

[MarcelNL]

Daphile is a Linux (Arch) distribution cooked up for audio, and includes LMS. A couple of versions of Daphile ago the 'hunting' and skipping was an issue, due to a lack of release note details all I know is that it was sorted when the plugin was updated. I don't know if TAS automatically updates (third party) plugins but the cause of the issue may lie there. Usually, with Daphile, a restart of the music player was enough to regain control.

TAS is running on top of LMS 8.0 for Windows which has good stability

The likely suspects for Wil’s problems are likely Network or USB

I have contacted Wil for a convenient time for me to TeamViewer in

 

[MarcelNL]

OK, just saying it was the third party plug in but then again, TAS is quite different and runs in Windows.

Hi Wil,

Thank you for the information. I will let Ed take it from here . He will figure out the issue he always does.

Will said Roon was rock solid. Why would the same cabling on the same network work fine with Roon? Am I missing something here? John

Better error handling.

Ahh...Got it...

A question for the Taiko team regarding the software choices and architecture:

Why Windows and not another OS?

I'm thinking for instance of a BSD based system which license would allow the development of closed source software ( guaranteeing the commercial aspect and the intellectual property).

Or a Linux, more widespread, but whose license imposes constraints.

This would allow to have a solid and perennial software foundation (OS and userland).

Not part of the Taiko team,. but I know the answer:0) Using the Windows OS delivers BETTER SOUND.
