Audio Station serves each track of a CUE image as a virtual track that the NAS transcodes to MP3 on the fly, without range reads, so Primuse has to receive the whole track before it can start; long tracks take a while. Version 1.13.1 (133) and earlier gave up after about a minute and skipped to the next song; later versions keep waiting as long as the NAS is still sending data. For fast starts, add the folder with the image file as a Synology (File Station), SMB or WebDAV source: Primuse then reads the image directly and seeks by the CUE sheet.
Let the track finish downloading; with Playback Cache on, the next play starts from the device.
For faster starts, add the folder with the image file as a Synology (File Station), SMB or WebDAV source.
If it still skips, upload a diagnostic log from Settings.
