Well, that sounds like an os issue ... can you give the necessary privileges to the App?

Another question is when try to search songs on window version, I cannot type any words into the search column. I've tried changing different languages but to no vail. I have also reset the player, it just not response. I cannot reproduce that - the search works : Screenshot 2024-03-12 103653.png

Does this appear as one device in "Output To" ?
Did you try the available options in "Audio Hardware > Channels" ?

I mainly take the music from YouTube after I convert it into the desired format in 32bit 384hz. I imagine that there is a loss of quality and that this is not the ideal way. I mainly listen to 90s techno music. I like having music saved on my hard drive without having to depend on online streaming ...

Fine, if you're happy with that. Although, as you mentioned perfection as a goal of yours, it has to be said, that 32-bit-processing is less perfect than 64-bit-processing. The latter reduces rounding errors in DSP.

Okay, I think I know what's the problem: you look at the "Audio Hardware" screen, that indded says "8.24 int" ... after you've changed the on/off status of 32-bit you first have to save these new settings, then reenter, then you'll see 24 bit if 32-bit is off and 32-bit fp if it is switched on.

Could provide screenshots that show what you mean with "8.24bit" and 32-bit int output ?

my audio files are in wav 32bit 384hz, in Windows the output is 32 bit but in neutron it tells me 8.24bit, when I activate the iee754 output it tells me 32bit int. Please check again. On my Windows 10 it normally shows "24-bit". If I activate "Audio Hardware > 32-bit Output (IEEE754)" it shows "32-...

Is there any other apps that you know can do better? Thx. I don't know about "better", but another possibility would be Firefox with Easy Youtube Video Downloader Express extension. One can use it by downloading mp4 videos and then extract the audio stream without further conversion, e.g. as follow...

And now just to make sure: YOU CANNOT IMPROVE QUALITY BY CONVERSION.
