NAS is a DS-218+ running LMS 7.7.6-116. The system was breaking up and stuttering on a 192/24 file. In all fairness, the NAS may have been running other tasks at the time.
I have tried the amp's DLNA capabilities using UPnPBridge - the LMS plugin. The sound was terrific and I liked the user experience (i.e.: a headless Squeezebox). I stopped using this configuration when I discovered the plugin wouldn't play my hi res files. I got in touch with the plugin author and he confirmed higher bit rates are a challenge for his plugin. If I could get DLNA to work solidly with all my files, I'd be all set! Any suggestions very much appreciated.
