I have an older I pad mini. What is the oldest version of IOS that will work with the Lumin app?
Few days ago I saw a notice for new firmware (vers. 11.6) for my D2. After the update my Lumin always stops playing music after several songs then continues the song again after few minutes. This has never happened before with the older firmware. Could you see the possibility if the new firmware somehow create this issue. Btw, there is no change to the network where Lumin is connected to.
In a pretty high end system what sound quality difference would I hear going from a Bluesound Node2 to the Lumin D2?
Please power cycle the D2. Save your current playlist, clear the current playlist, then add a few albums from MinimServer and try playing them again.
I'll also test it in my setup at work. However, it's been almost 2 weeks since the release of the firmware, and we have not received any other firmware 11.6 issue report.
I did cycle the power to my Lumin and it still stops playing music after few songs and then continues playing again. Next I will try to clear current playlist.
I had it happen also multiple times using the NT-505 with the Lumin app. Switched to the HR Streamer app and the problem went away. Seems to have started after the IOS 13.1.1 bug fix earlier in the week.
When it "stops playing", is the track completely played or is it in the middle?
When it "continues playing again", does it repeat the last played track, from the point where it stopped (if wasn't completely played), or does it play from the next track in the playlist?
From the Lumin to your network switch/router, is it all wired without going through any WiFi conversion?
Is your iOS device running iOS 13.x?
Due to what Jack said, could you try: start playback in repeat mode, then power down your iOS device. See if the Lumin still stops playback unexpectedly.
I tested Firmware 11.6 with iOS 13.1.2 and did not experience this issue.
Harry,
Please power down the Lumin, Android device and NAS. Power cycle the wifi router and all network switches. Wait for 5 minutes then power them up.
Then use Lumin app to factory reset the D2, in settings, options under D2, About.
If it still has problem please try playing an album from usb drive plugged into D2 instead of NAS, and use a different network cable connected to a different network port.
Yes, I can test that next week after our holiday. By design the control point cannot cause the player to stop playback though. You can shutdown your Android device and the Lumin D2 will still play.
Does D2 streaming of Tidal and Quobuz sound better than a cd?
