I ran all three maintenance operations – database integrity, rebuild, defragmentation.
using iTunes sync for library. So i deleted tracks, then synced library again – that did not fix it.
running Audirvana 3.5.44 (latest version, checked update). MacBook Air (M1), running MacOS 11.2.2
any suggestions? thx.
Hello @nobodyknows,
Can you send me a copy of the "Debug Info"while you have the issue? You can get it in Audirvana Settings>General>Debug Info
Note: By clicking on the Debug Info button, Audirvana automatically copies all its content, all you have to do is paste it in response to this message
Pasted below. i can send you the tracks if you want to try to duplicate. they are mp3s ripped from a CD. This is a track of the album where all tracks cut off early. I copied the debug info while the track was playing, a few seconds before end of track. (Also i played the tracks in iTunes & they play correctly there.)
Also FYI there was a single track on a different album (i think bought on iTunes? can check metadata) that was cutting off before, but has stopped cutting off as of today and now plays correctly. It was the only track of 12 that was cutting off, but as i said it is now playing correctly the full track.

Only 8gb of memory, might be better more for upsampling…
But why you are upsampling mp3 to you max (96) frequency?? When you could play the real flac from the cd in bit perfect format, without tempting troubles…
i just noticed something that might help you with problem: when i first click on the track, it will show what appears to be the correct track length in the ‘remaining time’ at right of the play bar (e.g. 6:30). but then after it has loaded the cache (or whatever the app does when the bar advanced from left to right) it shows the incorrect track time that results in cutting off (e.g. 6:24)
Can you send us the track you try to play so we can try it on our side? You can send it at support@audirvana.com
yes will do. i have some work calls at midday, but will get to later today. merci pour votre attention aux bugs.
i just noticed – track appears to load correctly when using Airplay. But not when using external DAC (or built-in speakers).
I wrote this a year or so back as well. It is very frustrating as about 1/3 of my songs terminate about 5 seconds from them ending properly. Seemingly a random occurrence. I just gave up and every time it happens I get angry instead. (The sound quality coming out of Audirvana beats anything else I have played my songs through so far including Roon (not that good actually), so I am living through the bugs, even the annoying ones.)
If this helps, my Windows 10 PC (stripped down to only run Audirvana) is attached to an external DAC. But this is one of the handful of bugs in Audirvana that I have never been able to get a good enough hold on to send data to Damien. It just seems so random, and I just cannot believe it doesn’t affect almost everyone who uses this software.
This is useful – we can brainstorm together & isolate the source of problem.
Is your library via iTunes syncing, or is it a standalone Audirvana library? (Mine is iTunes syncing.)
Also, can you set your source to either built in speakers or direct headphone jack (i.e. not the external DAC) & see if the tracks load correctly? Ditto if there’s a PC Airplay equivalent? (you can watch the ‘time remaining’ to right of song bar – when i first click the track it shows full length of song. Then after it loads, it suddenly knocks 4 to 5 seconds off the song length).
Any other variables you can think of in how your system is set up?
Okay then, since I have your company the next time I am actually sitting down and listening to music, I will do a bit more investigation. (unfortunately since everyone in my home now works from home (C19), I have less time to listen but I will over the weekend) I will reread what you wrote, and look for those things, and I will also see if I have any new observations to add to yours. (at least it is good to know that this bug is on both OS platforms)
Hopefully I will be able to post by Monday.
Actually I am going to start a new thread about this, because I just did a search for this ongoing bug and lots of people have it.
I heard back from Audirvana support. They find the bug happens when upsampling is turned on. No bug when upsampling turned off & output through external DAC. (I’m guessing this explains why there is no bug with AirPlay). I confirmed that this is the case for me as well.
if you can check on your Windows machine if this holds, I’ll pass that on to Audirvana support.
Also, can you post the URL for new thread here? that way it can be x-referenced.
Bonsoir,
Je viens de constater un phénomène étrange sur la gestion de la mise en mémoire tampon
J’ai actuellement 16 go de RAM. .
Lorsque je monte le curseur à 8go, le temps montre profressivement à 60mn sous 192 kHz et repasse à 0 mn d’un coup et puis remonte de la même façon à 60 mn quand j’atteint 16 go.
Je ne sais pas si je suis clair mais peut-être est ce la cause de problème.
Y a t’il quelque que je peut faire au niveau de la RAM de mon PC pour essais ?
Serait-il possible d’avoir la version antérieur à la V.3.4.45 anttendant une nouvelle version plus stable.
Merci de votre compréhension.
Cordialement
Mr GUERNION
To say that the bug is related to upsampling is incorrect. I just disabled upsampling completely and a 24/96 stream from Qobuz cut out just before the end of the track.
I’m not sure that it can be just a buffer problem either- tracks of different length and different sample rate/bit depth all cut out a few seconds before the track ends. Changing the buffer size doesn’t make any difference.
This might be a difference between MacOS & Windows build; there might be different instigating factors at play on the different OS. Because on my MacOS machine & in the Audirvana support effort (I assume they were using a MacOS machine to duplicate my bug) to duplicate the bug, both instances showed upsampling is related to the bug.
Bonjour M. Guernion, est-ce que vous trouvez que le chanson (le ‘track’) s’arrête tôt, et on n’écoute pas le track entière? C’est ça que nous discutons ici. Je suis désolé, je ne comprends pas comment on monte le curseur à le RAM – est-ce que c’est dans le ‘settings’ de Audirvana, et si, dans quel setting? merci.
J’ai refait des test cet après et j’ai constaté que quand le titre est precharge rapidement je n’ai aucun soucis sur l’enchaînement du reste de l’album.
Et quand cela met un peu plus de temps, ça bloque à tous les coups.
Et comme le 24 bit est plus long à precharger, çà coupe à chaque fois.
Et utilisant le plug-in room shaper, cela ralenti encore plus le préchargement.
Je pense que temps de préchargement à une influence sur ce bug.
Est ce une mise à jour de Windows qu’on a provoqué ce bug, j’ai windows 10 pro.
Du coup je tourne avec Flac losless6sans Room shaper et ça passe à peu près.
Mais tous fonctionnait avant la V. 3.5.45.
Pour être sûr de ne pas avoir de Bug, je relance plusieurs fois l’album jusqu’à avoir une vitesse de préchargement rapide.
Voilà mon analyse.
I also have the same problem since the last update, very frustrating. And many people here have the same problem. Please address and resolve this.
Nobodyknows, this URL I made just compromises a screen shot of others with this problem. After reading their threads fully I couldn’t find a single commonality.
