I have recently had trouble playing radio 3 operas on my Linn devices. These files used to play although there were problems. They play well on my RPi3 with IQaudIO DAC+ amd upmpdcli gapless player software. (Totally brilliant setup which enables me to use excellent power amplifiers which would otherwise be redundant.)

I asked Linn for help which they are working on and received this reply:-

As a workaround for now, you could convert the file to a different format. I've checked that it plays after converting to either FLAC or ALAC using dbpoweramp.

You might even find that just re-writing it as AAC fixes things - the problems are caused by the file being split into an enormous number of tiny chunks (over 400,000 audio blocks for a 9,200 second track); any encoder which reduced this would allow the file to play.

Please could somebody tell me if this is correct and what should be there or have I done something wrong with my gip installation.
