I have just added an old Play 3 to my network which also has a Beam and a Playbase.
I have my music library of FLACs ripped from my CD collection on a hard drive attached to my router.
If I try to play one of a fair proportion of those FLACs on the Play 3 alone, it doesn’t work; I get errors from “can’t connect” to “wrongly encoded”. It seems consistent which ones don’t play. They work fine on the other speakers, and they will play on the 3, so long as another speaker is also playing them. The moment I stop the other speaker, the Play 3 stops playing the song with an error. Other tracks are fine. All have been ripped with the same software and the same settings.
I’m baffled, don’t know where to start debugging this, any ideas?
