Still having probs getting playlists going. I have ND5 XS with Synology NAS drive controlled through a iPAD. Neil (badlyread) was kind enough to give me the following - Select track/album hit 'add to' & hit 'play list' but I can't see 'add to' for the life of me. Any further help much appreciated. Regards Bob M.

Whilst rummaging around on the net, i was looking for some reputable stores to try a file hires files. Can anyone recommend any? My musical tastes are varied but would steer more towards electronic/downtempo.  Much obliged! :D

I am curious as to whether any one has had - and perhaps solved - a problem I have with my Synology 212J NAS... My ND5 plays some, but not all, of my high res recordings that are streamed via hardwired ethernet cable from my Synology 212J and...

Well, after a number of hiccups, resulting in me getting the higher spec model and a bit of a delay, my UnitiQute is waiting for me at home. I am soooo excited.

Hi AllI am a bit new to streaming music. Could any of you tell me would there be any difference in terms of sound quality either better or worse in the caption senarios?I have seen a lot of cases in the forum that Mac Mini perform very well with the...

Hi, I notice the spec for some of the Uniti products now mention 32 bit support. Is this a theoretical support or are their actually files at this bit level? I just bought a UnitiQute this week and it says 24/192 on the box. Not sure if it...

I've noticed a couple of dealers selling fairly new ex demo stock of the NDX. Does this suggest a new version hitting the market or simply generating cash flow ?I'm contemplating a move from Mac/Dac to NDX and wondered if I should wait ......

Hi, I prefer to use wav files with cue sheets for meta data (with foobar or SB Touch). I would guess Asset doesn't support cue files since Spoon seems to hate their guts.:) But are there other server options that support cue files...

Hi there, Ok, so my vortexbox died (I'm having to live cheaply and ran it on a very old Dell so no surprise really!) Recently I've been relying on spotify through my SBT but the internet connection out here in the sticks can be dodgy - today it...

I have set up my Unitiserve ssd and NDX and enabled file sharing etc. Whilst the Unitiserve can find the files I have put on my QNAP NAS drive it does not list them by artist or album in the same way my Sonos did. I ripped all the music using...

Not really a streaming question, but I've posted it here as this is where many of the computer buffs seem to spend a lot of time! Hope that's OK Richard. A simple question maybe, but so far I've not been able to find an answer. The question is...

My Mac Mini is connected to a NAIM DAC with an optical cable.The cable has been unplugged and plugged again a couple of times and, since I do not live in a white room, the cable tip may have got some dust. Is there a recommended way to clean the...

Hi all, Finally got the system back together, and several members have suggested using BP with Itunes to get the best from it. However, i think i may have a problem :D My MM is of 2007 vintage. After purchasing and installing BP,...

New NDS owner here.  Curious if fellow streamers could advise me if the length of Ethernet wire makes a difference?  Currently my UnitiServe / External Hard Drive are downstairs from the main system.  They feed my NDS via CAT6 in the...

What would you not do again or wish you had done to get where you are now. Perhaps a list of hardware, software & file format that you have found works well together as a package. As someone who is going to find it hard enough to get started what lessons did you learn so foggy heads like me can get it more right than wrong first time? Cheeky ask I know but starting off with stuff that works would be a big help. Thanks Foggy.

This is my first post so I'm sorry if this has already been posted before. How difficult is it to transfer Wav files from one Nas to another with all the metadata and cover art. Also are rips done with and HDX as good UnitiServe-SSD? I am only...
