Hi,

We are looking into this.  In the meantime, there is a workaround:

   - save tracks as Apple Lossless in VinylStudio and import them into iTunes

   - in iTunes, select all the tracks in the album, iTunes convert to Apple Lossless version

   - in iTunes delete each track created by VinylStudio retaining the converted versions

Hi Paul,

Thank you for the tip, it works for a number of albums but not for all. I did ripped 9 albums and it did works for 6 of them and not for the other 3. I dont know what i am doing wrong ?

Help,

Thank you,

Robert

OK, we'll look into it.

Hello again,

We have now had a go at fixing this, but with no Sonos to hand I can't test it.  Could I therefore ask you to see if the following two files will play (these are download links):

    https://www.alpinesoft.co.uk/private/V11_07.m4a

    https://www.alpinesoft.co.uk/private/V11_13.m4a

If the first one fails to play and the second is OK then we have fixed the bug.

Many thanks.
