Even when iPeng only actually plays the audio as 44.1 kHz, 16 bit output (when using analog out on iPhone) it still makes sense to be able to use the full stream because that way you can sync it to another Squeezebox (Touch or Transporter) without spoiling the HD sample rate playback. > > but got a model that people generally reported good transcoding > performance using Synology's own audio app. > Well, maybe Synology uses something like shine, too. There are also commercial mp3 encoders that use fixed point maths to encode mp3, which is what it's needed to make it perform well on most NAS because these lack a floating point processor. Which model is it, BTW? > > I'll have to try connecting the iPhone from a different wireless > network, since I don't know who the administrator of my first network > is.

Thanks > again! The one gotcha here is that if you use port 9002 internally it's also got to be 9002 on the internet.
