Hello
I am trying to play FLAC files from two different albums and both fail immediately.
I tried playing them in both VLC and Quicktime and they work perfectly fine, so the files are no t the problem.
What is the issue?
Hi @ldsimpson16
Best to post you debug info so the boffins can gander at your setup for possible fixes.
I’m not a boffin.

First thing I notice is that you use almost all of your RAM for buffering. I’d start with lowering your buffersize to 4Gb.
Thanks for the input. How do I do that?

Settings\Audio\Loading-Decoding (see screenshot below). You can only adjust this when Audirvana does not play music. For average use a setting of between 4 and 8 MB should be OK.

Sweet thanks!
@ldsimpson16, do you still get your issue?
