start of hi-res tracks clipped off

The alternate system is a QNAP NAS running Asset 5.1.1 that can be ethernetted directly into the Moon 380D using the Moon's MIND module in place of the Signature SE as the file player. Using this configuration the Hi-Res tracks start from the beginning. Am reporting this alternate because it seems to indicate that the files are not corrupted, which suggests (to this non-techie) that the problem that's arisen (I believe coinciding with the most recent update to MinimServer/MinimStreamer) would involve something that needs resetting on the SonicTransporter, MinimServer/MinimStreamer, and/or the Signature SE. I'm suspecting the adjustment would be to MinimServer/MinimStreamer because it's the most recent change to the system and its configuration.

Sorry for the confusion. Appreciate your patience.

You own a Moon 380D equipped with an internal Mind module. The Mind renderer can stream through internet, PCM (all rates) and DSD64. Your SonicTransporter is connected to internet and runs minimserver, and so should be able to directly feed the Mind renderer. With a proper control point (BubbleUPnP on Android, mConnect on IOS, there are many others),
you should be able to drive your system with the Signature SE momentarily out of the picture. You could then verify if the dropouts still occur, or if your tracks now play correctly without the Sonore SE and its USB connection in place.

I make this suggestion to help better diagnose your problem. Keep me informed.
