I am using Sonore UPnP Bridge on an Audiostore Mite and have discovered a problem which I can reproduce. I know this is not Sonore hardware, but the software is the same I believe?
Anyway, first, play some music with Roon to the Bridge. Next go into DSP settings in Roon. Then enable Parametric EQ and start very quickly changing settings. I turn bands on and off. You need to do it quicker than Roon can catch up with so that you make multiple changes before the music starts again.
Eventually Roon will just continuously skip tracks and the music will never start again. If you look at the endpoints in Roon the Bridge will have disappeared.
To fix, the Bridge must be restarted. No need to restart Roon Core as it will recover.
@Jesus_Rodriguez thanks for the response, I appreciate your help.
I have found that quickly hitting any buttons can cause the skipping issue. For instance if I click on Next Track and Previous Track too quickly then it goes into the skipping loop.
Also I found to fix it I can just restart the Bridge app rather than the Mite itself.
However you are correct in what you say: the problem only occurs if music is playing. If I pause playback then it seems to be OK.
Is there a way to fix this? The problem is if I give my iPad to a friend and ask them to play some music, ābut donāt press buttons too quickly or it will breakā.
That is a good way to reset things. Understand that the application needs to translate commands across the various protocols and you can not overload it by fast clicking. Also, we are not able to trouble shot specific issues for every case because we donāt have the gear to test with. This is the reason the app is in perpetual Beta status.
I wish I had know that before I spashed money on hardware to support it.
For what its worth, Iāve compiled a list of issues with the Bridge + Roon + Naim 272
Naim volume set to 100% after Bridge restart or significant system setting change in Roon (I think this to be a problem only for people who have a combined Pre-Amp and Streamer/DAC like me)
Perpetual skipping of tracks if too many buttons are pressed too quickly in the Roon app
When playing a CD, it will often stop before the end of the track quite suddenly. Sometimes Roon Radio kicks in, sometimes not.
I canāt use the Stop button. Instead of stopping it just goes to the next track! I can use Pause, butā¦
If I press Pause and try to switch my Naim to another input (e.g. TV / vinyl) then it will often switch back to Roon/Sonore and keep playing from the next track! My other half has become quite annoyed at inability to be able to stop the music - understandably.
If this will never be fixed because, as you say, you donāt have the resources nor will it ever leave beta status then I have to wonder if I have made the right decision.
I have been testing in my system here today and Iām not able to reproduce your systems.
The volume is 100% as set.by Roon with my unit because itās a streamer and does not need a volume control. Are you able to set some max volume you feel comfortable with.
No skipping here with playback after several hours.
I donāt have a way to test a CD.
I donāt see a stop button in Roon. What are you using as a controller?
I donāt have your unit here so I canāt test its input select switch. This seems like a firmware issue with your DAC/AMP because we do not control that feature.
All the marketing on this feature is listed as bata. If Vortexbox UK has misrepresented that you should contact them.
Having just added a Sonore UPnP Bridge to add Roon functionality to my ND5XS. Does anyone know if it possible to see song info on the screen and on Naim app? I can see the sample rate, the song / track info just shows streaming# where the artist / song are usually displayed.
Youāre right about the volume control aspect, with my unit being a combined pre-amp and streamer/DAC. I had set the maximum volume on the unit to 45% so as not to damage my equipment.
When I said CD, I meant a ripped CD album, sorry for not being clear. The stop button is on the Naim unit/remote control.
Anway, it is what it is, Iām going to use an alternative Rpi based approach and return the Audiostore product. Its just not for me. Thanks for your help.
Yes, you use Roon Remote to control the stream to the Network player.
With Roon the stream is pushed to the Endpoint rather with a UPnP Render will pulls the file from the server.
So my Naim remote has been in the draw and not used. I also donāt use any other input on the NDS, I havenāt played a CD in ages, on the Merdian 200 CDT.
So the Bridge is exclusive to the Ethernet input, and no volume control.
Just to say I have recently installed a Sonore UPnP bridge on my Naim (NDS) system and has worked flawlessly. Simple to set up and works as advertised.
Using the Roon App and enjoying more of my music which has been buried away until Roon pops up and suggests a listen
Iām having trouble connecting my MicroRendu to a Devialet Dialog with two zones named Livingroom and Office. The renderer isnāt listed in available renderers. Bubble UPnP recognises the renderer and has no trouble playing. Iāve tried manually to enter the renderer name, but the thing is the name changes in Bubble UPnP if the two zones are combined or not. I have tried both zones names and the combined name as recognised by Bubble UPnP but the bridge function wonāt start and Roon canāt see the endpoint. Iām on latest firmware on the MicroRendu. Any ideas on troubleshooting?
Edit:
Removed one zone from the Devialet setup, it didnāt make any difference. The Sonore app still canāt find it
Edit 2:
Devialet doesnāt support DNLA, could that be the issue?
Did you refresh the page to see if more devices are listed? You should not have to remake anything. Roon will not show things until the SonoreUPnP Bridge makes a connection.
Thank you for the quick reply.
Iāve refreshed several times, tried both Chrome and Firefox on my phone running Android 9 and Chrome on my laptop running Win 10 Pro.
