Hello WM1 Lovers

does anybody have problems with album covers and DSD 256 files?

I've bought Jaco Pastorius Truth Liberty & Soul Album from nativedsd.com and no matter what i do i don't get an album cover shown with my WM1A (DMP FW).
I saved the files a few times with Mp3TagManager as well as TagScan and changed the covers but nothing happend. I also put a jpg with the folder name in it.

Thansk for your help

There are two extensions for DSD
DFF (.dff) doesn't allow covers or metadata
DSF (.dsf) allows tags

As someone who primarily listens to flac files, is there any benefit of dsd over flac?

On analogue tape direct to DSD with no edit, it sounds the best, every thing feel more analogue

I dont know how you guys navigate 1 TB of music, the UI is not designed for that. I think 512 GB is the maximum I can tolerate, on a screen of such size.

I’ve only used 24GB. I won’t need a memory card

No problem navigating 1TB of music in about 45.000 tracks as long as it is propperly tagged

No problem here too.

I go normally Main screen > composer > album and hit the track I want to play. I usually listen to full albums from start to finish

Having stuff hard to find can be fun actually. I come from vinyl and often records would “disappear” for 5 years. When music turns up unexpectedly then it’s maybe what we are supposed to listen to?

I usually go Genre, Artist, Album

I have no issues as all of my 11,000+ tracks are fully tagged. I usually browse by Artist, Genre or Folder (which I have organized by letter/artist/album).

damn...can you say this again. I was on the bus the other day, about 20 songs I swear I didnt download to the 1A all showed up out the abyss...

I have a similar structure letter range/composer/Album

BTW I have discovered that, if you go to Player settings > Mount/Unmount SD Card, the db rebuild process is faster that if you just eject the card and put in the new one
