Hello WM1 Lovers :gs1000smile:

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

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 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).

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
