ISO File and CUE Sheet Issue

2021-03-12 04:54:09

Hello

I've loaded an ISO file without issue on PC #1 and it plays just fine.  I label all tracks (which had generic names) and create a CUE sheet within Foobar and save the CUE sheet in the same folder with the ISO file on an NAS Drive.

On a second PC (PC#2), I load the exact same CUE sheet from the same folder on the NAS Drive.  The newly created track names load but there is no value before the Kbps and I receive an I/O error. 

I'm using WASAPI Shared in both scenarios.

Might anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

For one thing, cue sheets are only for CD audio, not any dvd or other multi-channel format. Even if it is working on one system, then you also need the same plugin that's decoding the .iso on both machines, unless this cue sheet is referring to it as raw audio, then it will only be 44100hz 16 bit stereo pcm.

Thanks for the prompt reply kode54. Just compared both PC's components side by side, PC#1 and PC#2 are identical except PC#1 has SQL Lite installed. This side by side comparison includes all of the component versions matching identically in both PC's and the version of Foobar 1.6.4. 
If I convert to FLAC then titles appear identical in both PC's and the bit rate matches on both and there is zero issues.
The issue is consistent with packed ISO's that appear as PCM & MLP's (both 2 CH and 6CH within ISO), but not with say DST64 ISOs.
ISO's with DST64 appear and play properly on both machines without issue and the track titles are properly embedded in the ISO as I have this option checked [store tags with ISO].
Perhaps this tidbit may help in your analysis and that's an interesting tidbit on the Cue Sheet.
Thanks,
