I bought some commercial 24/96 files two days ago (Grateful Dead RFK
Stadium 1989) that my Transporters would not play at all. Well, I went
ahead and used dbPowerAmp to "convert" FLAC to FLAC (level 5), and now
they play completely fine! I just thought I'd bump this thread in case
it helps
Nice it worked! The bitrate and blocksize and the number 4608 does have
nothing in common.
It is a pure coincidense. 24bit 96kHz has a bitrate of 4608kbps. flac
compresses into frames of a steady blocksize that has a maximum of 4608
samples per block for sampling rates up to 48kHz. This was used

If these files are flac you may try to recompress them with a blocksize
of 4096 that is default for recent flac versions. I had files compessed
with level 8 and a blocksize of 4608 that stuttered. If it still
stutters use a lower compression level like 6 or 5 that is default iirc.
Transporter
try a xlinx reset. remove power from transporter, point remote at
transporter holding down the "1" key, and reapply power. When you see
the message about "xlinx" reset on the transporter screen, you can quit
pressing the 1 key. let transporter reboot. You won't lose any settings
doing this.
This is weird, and recent. I have 2 Transporters. The newer one (and
the one in the far room) won't play certain hi-def files properly.
There is massive distortion and the 2 players get out of sync. I've
tried a switch from wireless to ethernet but that does not solve this.
However, if I
