Hi Peter, I think to notice after the 10.15 update of player app IOS of 21Jan25 that the volume setting has an increased delay. Some background on how this was found: Open the app, hit play button, immediately go to volume bar, and move it to the desired volume. Result 1: Volume does not go to...

I've noticed in earlier app versions (IOS) that when ticking the cover art tile left top in the app brings up an album cover screen with song name/artist/song audio details. In the latest app version these details show only for 1 second then disappear. Just letting know as I'd prefer the...

Hi Just a question/idea that popped up in my mind. I was wondering if I could create playlists on Mac in the music folders and then upload/download them in the iPhone app. Would this be possible and if so how? My idea came from the limited 2000 items that you can put in the Lumin player, and...

I noticed when the app is open you see sometimes a scrollwheel when the app is auto updating its library. Unfortunately when the auto update is done the tab that's browsed jumps to top of the list (my case I noticed it in the Genre tab view) Could this be fixed? PS my case I'd not need the auto...

I've just noticed in Lumin app (current version) the 'Last Modified' albums is not fully in line with MinimServer 'Recently Added' albums. e.g. if I replace one file in an album folder with the same file name but e.g. with different tag info in it, MinimServer 'Recently Added' will immediately...

Hi Lumin team. I've noted the new colours in the latest app version. Could I suggest / May I request a user defined color? Reason is I found scheme Orange in the settings, but with the dark black background and numbering/year/genre background text in white takes here & there more attention...

How much time have you spent on your server-based music library? I was amazed in my case how much time I've spent on standardising artist names, titles, adding genre, adding release years etc. I think I am easily 200 hours down and not done yet. estimate 1000 albums. And you?

Lumin app no album covers in Song Grouping View I notice, I think since upgrading iPhone to IOS17, that when opening the Lumin app the following always happens: 1. all saved album art in the app disappears from screen and 2. that the album art repairs itself (partly) in 3-5 min waiting time...

As I'd like to automate my home somewhat more I would like to control the previous, play and next options via the computer, this case a Macbook with an intel chip where the player is U1. I believe I cannot use Lumin software due to the intel processor. My current playing Linn Kazoo which works...

Dear audiosharks, on my way to upgrade for the better my audio path however against a little budget I try to find out the smartest next step. I've limited the options to two. I have an amp with decent grip on my speakers, but out of auditioning I know a more horsepower amp will deliver stronger...

With Lumin U1 Mini as source I use its clock as clock source in my digital system. Now I notice this clock is always outputting except when the system is muted. I try to understand, why is the clock signal gone when muted?

Hi, I've renewed my interest in the sounds in found in dead silence with an amp on reasonable our louder level, and what you then can hear in an amp's background noises, sometimes only via the headphone output. Everything just seems to "live". I talk about background hiss, mains hum, or high...

Dear insightful audiosharks, I am extremely happy with a Hegel H90 that has a beautiful integrated DAC as well as a very nice sounding A/B class amp inside that delivers 60W @ 8ohms with a damping factor of 2000. However, since I look more and more for no nonsense designs, I am orienting...

I checked on lumin website the iOS compatibility. I believe this was iOS 8 and up. The reasoning behind is that I have an iPad mini with iOS 9.3.5 which is regularly crashing and shows always a spinning update icon in the album list. Or it takes forever. To compare, my latest iOS iPhone can...

Dear audiosharks. I attempted in my apartment with neighbors around to record a vinyl. Then I found that when the turntable has the needle on the LP but is not spinning, that there are many micro sounds that make it into the recording. e.g. if I step on my own floor you see some incoming low...
