Michael,
You are playing the 24/96 version? Which transporter firmware version
are you running?

Same issue via the analog outputs?
Dont have raising sand, but a number of other albums from hdtracks.
Never had any issues at all with the TP connected wirelessly.

Thanks guys.
This is all very strange. My tranporter is hard wired, but on what
could be an oldish version of firmware(77).
I will try to dig further.

Reviving an old thread - I have just purchased a 24/96 copy of 'Raising
Sand' from HD tracks.
As it arrives from HDTracks the Transporter is unable to play any
track, just noise produced, although my DAC does recognise the S/PDIF
stream produced by the transporter as 24/96. I followed the

Answering my own question, Rebecca Pidgeon's Spanish Harlem did indeed
stutter when played through my new Touch.
Just spent a while re-encoding all Hi-rez flacs to -0
Thanks for all of the above recommendations. I too had difficulty with
'Spanish Harlem' from HDTracks. I reformatted it at a compression of
3,Flac,and still at 24/96 and the distortion was gone.

I've been running quite a few Linn and HDTracks 24/96 files, and never
had problems till very recently. After seeing this post, I found that
(at least) one recent purchase simply needed to be re-compressed at a
lower compression level. I used level 3, and everything was great. It
was driving me
I have experienced the same issue. If you re-encode the file at the
default 5 compression level, the tracks from HDTracks.com will play
fine. I run them all through a FLAC-FLAC recompression when I get them
and it has fixed all problems I have encountered. I have the same songs
that were
I am having the same exact problem with Spanish Harlem as well as two
other songs downloaded from HDtracks from the Worlds Greatest

Ain'tNo Sunshine and
Meditation
Also, I can play them with Media Monkey and send them through a

The 20 24/96 flac albums I have never caused me any problems (running

the higher the level of compression, the higher the amount of work
required to de-compress. It seems that the Transporter isn't quite
capable of de-compressing 24/96 flac files with high levels of
compression. Converting to wav, or reducing the amount of
I'm little surprised by the fact that Transporter cannot decompress on
the fly 24/96 flac files without any struggling.
I admit I didn't conduct any test myself but maybe there is a chance
that my Transporter is able to do that without hickups :-).
I'm going to record some 24/96 files and put
As Sean alluded to, earlier in this thread, it has been a problem with
some material, some levels of compression, and some firmware versions.
To me, it appears that the hardware is a bit marginal.
As my 24/96 files account for less than 2% of my total music
collection, the extra space

the best workaround is to use flac to re-encode that one track. It'll
probably work with the default settings.

You don't need to decode to WAV. If you just run the FLAC utility it
will decode and re-encode the FLAC using standard settings.

We used to have problems where TP would run short of cpu cycles on
certain 24/96 material but I thought that was not an issue any more. It
may be that this material was encoded using the highest compression
settings which results in slightly more CPU-intensive decoding. You
might try

When I disable the native decoder the song plays perfectly. So there
must
be a decoder bug. Is there a downside in having this setting disabled?
