The Astell & Kern AK240

Hello,
My AK240 used to show all info (tags) in WAV-files. But now when I upload an album (wav 24-192 and other) it lists the author as unknown. Still all the tags are there when I check in Mp3tag and in Tag&Rename. Can anyone help?
Thanks.

In the settings, you can set the 240 to rescan your entire library. Alternatively, you can reboot the 240 and this will do the same thing.

I see no reason why not ...

How did you do the rescan?  What are the keystrokes to get to the command?

settings - default settings - initialize media scan

  I have just done a rescan.
Still the unknown artist on top of the list.


I don't have any WAV files on my 240, but I seem to recall they don't have tag info unless a cue sheet is used. Perhaps someone with more experience on this can chime in ...

I have quite a few .wav files/albums of various bit/sample rates on my 240 and all display metadata with no problems. The only thing I could suggest checking is, make sure that the Artist and Album Artist fields are populated in your editor. Other than that, I dunno.

Just noticed that the Blue Note Edition got a $1000 price drop from most official re-seller, including Moon Audio.

I would speculate the value is in the CDs provided. Any ideas if they're limited edition with appreciation value for the future? For example some of my 80's teeny bopper SACDs have gone up in value tremendously since Sony doesn't print them anymore.

Thank you chawya22.
What we are doing now is checking the nature of the tag files in WAV.
Yesterday I could load an album in wav without any problem on my AK240.
Seems to me that there are different kind of tag files in WAV under artist??
If we find the solution, I will post it.
