always suspicious of people who refer to "chunks" when there is a recognised

I suspect they are using "chunk" from MP4 parlance, though a chunk contains multiple 
audio blocks ("samples" in MP4).

Does the Linn play all the files in a directory in turn?  It it does, would
it help to split the file into separate files for each act of the opera?

The issue could be that Linn's player doesn't have enough memory to read the 
sample tables from the file's MP4 container, so it refuses to play the file. If 
so, splitting the file or transcoding to FLAC are probably the best options.

Thanks for the replies and yes I take the point about the arithmetic.
I too am surprised by Linn's response and the memory shortage seems most plausible. What I do not understand is why they have not come across this before. I shall pursue them on this and report back.

Breaking up the download into acts would be a huge task and one I cannot contemplate for more than a couple of favourites and with my RPi working so well the Linn devices may be destined for ebay!
