When playing music, after a few songs the player will stop playing. The progress bar on the server will move a couple of seconds and return to zero. Moving the progress bar will restart the song. I tried using a PC server and a server on the Pi. Also tried both USB DAC and the built-in DAC. I went back to my RP2. All produce the same results. Sometimes it will play multiple albums before the problem starts. Changing music on the fly will sometimes trigger the behavior.
[UPDATE] Most of the music was formatted uncompressed ALAC (.m4a). Using JRiver MediaCenter I converted some of the albums to FLAC. The problem seems to be gone now but it will take some time to be sure. Anyone else experience issues with ALAC formated music?
– Thanks
