Played again with it last night, I definitely like it!
But.. if I have a Symphony or Opera cut in 12 tracks, impossible to listen in one go!

Thank you.
One option is the "Preprocess button" which decodes all files to wav format and then loads them one by one, minimizing the "gap" between them.
A second option (RAM consuming) is to try the new "Merge" button, just created for you (download the software again).

Yesterday for the first time I had a really long session with Pure Player. I have to say: Congratulations! For me, it´s really the purest sound of all. It seems, that it plays just the naked content of the file. There is nothing more to hear. I´m very astonished of this, as I would not believe it until I heard it. I have one wish for chrismas: shuffle-play (and musepack support:".mpc").

Best wishes

Luki

Well it's not christmas but it's Valentine's day

You may find your Christmas gifts in version 2.7.7

Wow, thanks Nikos! I guess I need to build up some RAM first..

You wont have any problem if Virtual memory is enabled (and enough)...

lolo · 2013-02-14 1:36 pm

ok, but for best performance you do recommend to disable it, right?

npetralias · 2013-02-14 1:44 pm

Right, although the difference in some systems is almost not audible.

In WASAPI mode the file format must be 100% supported by hardware (Sound Card, DAC, etc). If not the result is the one you describe. Please try some more files (normal CD quality just to be sure).

Maybe this screenshot helps:

"
C:\pureplayernew>del /Q C:\pureplayernew\chk
C:\pureplayernew>set str="E:\Musik\Stevie Wonder - Uptight (Everythings Alright)
.mp3"
C:\pureplayernew>set ext=mp3"
C:\pureplayernew>set pre="E:\Musik\Stevie Wonder - Uptight (Everythings Alright)
.wav"
C:\pureplayernew>set ext1=mp3
C:\pureplayernew>set ext2=p3"
C:\pureplayernew>if "E:\Musik\Stevie Wonder - Uptight (Everythings Alright).mp3"
== cd (
C:\pureplayernew\playcdtrack.bat 1 C:\pureplayernew\
goto end
)
C:\pureplayernew>if "E:\Musik\Stevie Wonder - Uptight (Everythings Alright).mp3"
== cdall (
C:\pureplayernew\playcdall.bat 1 C:\pureplayernew\
goto end
)
C:\pureplayernew>cd C:\pureplayernew\
C:\pureplayernew>if 1 == 1 (
start /b /HIGH /WAIT C:\pureplayernew\flacplay_wasapi "E:\Musik\Stevie Wonder -
Uptight (Everythings Alright).mp3" C:\pureplayernew\
goto end
)
Trying to play E:\Musik\Stevie Wonder - Uptight (Everythings Alright).mp3
Wasapi Mode Selected...
Using SOX...
Decoding complete, time to wave out...
Input WAV stream: stereo @ 44.1kHz, 16bpS
Allocated 29MB buffer
Opening exclusive mode device...OK - Latency 450ms
Elevating priority to pro audio...OK
Touching memory...OK
Playing... 00%
"

This a typical phenomena, using the ASAPI-Mode. The same file played in foobar in ASAPI-Mode is ok.

I will try more to replicate the problem and let you know.
Can you provide some information about the audio hardware? (Sound card, DAC, connection etc)

I´m not at home, but I can tell you that I do not use a sound card (the Onboard-Chip), but this USB-to-SPDIF-Converter HA info U2 USB to SPDIF(AC3 DTS) USB to SPDIF Converter | eBay and this DAC: 24-Bit-Audio-D/A-Wandler ADA 24, Komplettbausatz | ELV-Elektronik.

npetralias · 2013-02-15 10:51 am

I see.
I have never tried PurePlayer with the Tenor7022 chip that your USB to SPDIF Converter uses. Please, if possible, set it to 16, 44100 and try again with the same file (Stevie Wonder - Uptight.mp3)

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

Ok, i´ll try this afternoon. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the link, but with foobar and ASAPI I have no problems. But Pure player plays purer...
