Streaming Audio

Hi everyone. I bought an nd5 xs in May 2012 with SN32xxxx, updated with latest firmware as of today. Even from the first day of ownership I occasionally found that the unit would not power up properly when switched on. More specifically, the...

I am using n-Stream with my iPad to operate my NDX.I would like to Know if there is a particular reason why if I navigate my library (which is on my mac running wit E-lyrics) from my iPad with the n-Stream app when I select Album artist in the icon...

I am using n-stream 3.2 on an i-pad 2 to stream music from WD NAS drives through my ND5XS using Twonky. Since updating from n-stream 3.1 to 3.2, I noticed that a few of my tracks showed up blank on the Artist/Album view i.e. they were there but only...

Well, I've studied the HDX manual 4.8.4 and I'm none the wiser to this simple question: Before starting to set up a backup through the HDX menu system do I first need to set up a folder on the NAS called HDX Backup or some such.....or do I do...

I am thinking of an upgrade to my system and I would welcome any advice my budget is around 2500. Currently Ndx powerline Nac 202 Nap 250 Hicap dr Napsc Credo speakers Option 1 is xps 2 dr Option 2 trade in for nac 282 but I think this will be out...

Oh! What a feeling to await to lay my hands over brand new Superuniti tomorrow! Can't wait the moment to slip my credit card and grab the box. Meanwhile, what would be reasonable to check out at retailers place to be sure that everything is ok with my...

I thought this was what many have been calling for.

I have a new Unitilite and a Zyxel NAS325 attached. Works fine except the playlists. The Lite reads a list only if songs are in the same directory as the list. All other lists are found but are empty for the Lite. Means I cannot make lists using...

UnitiQ supports Chinese and I am still long waiting for UnitiServ can do the same!

For those that are using a mac mini for music duties, what is the spec of yours? There are a few second hand ones around, but some are only 1.5 - 1.8 processors. Is this enough to keep up with streaming? Not too worried about HDD size...

My HDX is 1tb.  Am I right in thinking that the NAS backup device I am going to buy can only be used solely for that purpose - ie it cannot have additional material on it for streaming - and therefor a 1tb NAS is all the capacity I should ...

I don't turn off my Uniti very often but if I leave it off overnight or if I am away it losses its twonky conection. It says "No Shared Content" I use a Mybooklive hard wired to the Uniti, and the only way to get it back is to rebuild the Twonky in...

The joys of the Virgin Media 'SuperHub' are giving me hell in trying to get my home network to recognise the HDX on the main PC via desktop client. As the Virgin modem has almost no wireless capability I have connected my Belkin Router...

Hi everyone, When someone buys a ND5XS ( or similar), should he also buy a NAS, or can he just use his computer? For example, I have a Apple MacPro laptop, can this suffice to story my music downloads? In other words, why do people buy NAS in...

Am in the process of attempting my first firmware upgrade on my Unitiqute and am having some issues... I've downloaded/installed the streamer updater to my Samsung N110 laptop and am attempting an upgrade using the wizard to get from 3.0 to 3.17. ...

Not sure if anyone here uses spotify? Just seen an article on web stating that they have changed the service and now no longer offer the download service. This may be old news, not sure but thought it was worth posting just in case it...

An appeal for help for anybody who may be able to! I have a unitiserve and NDS, controlling via n-stream & n-serve. Quite regularly I come to turn on the ipad after a period of system non use (ie first thing in the morning) but the app doesn't find any server. Same thing with NDS direct with remote - "no server" appearing on the NDS screen. To resolve I am powering down the unitiserve, then rebooting. Any ideas why the unitserve could keep dropping out of...

Hi all, Just ripping a few more cd's and i have noticed that some CD's ripped bitrates are different to others. I thought they would all be ripped the same? :) 

HAPPY NEW YEAR! A couple of months ago I got some excellent advice here about the using separate switches from separate fusebox fuses for audio equipment  and internet equipment to avoid interference. Stuff like the...

Managed to get dbpoweramp working (on trial basis using Parallels with Windows on my Mac) but am finding that the metadata corrections being chosen by it are very often not correct (and when I make amendments they seem to be ignored) - there is a...

Hi All, I'm relatively new to forum but have found reading this domain very useful indeed. A quick overview, I have an LP12, naim nait 5i-2 and B&W 684's. I now wish to add a streaming option with a budget of around £1600. While I'd like to choose a naim product I'm slightly confused as to the range of options. I'm currently considering: 1. Buying pre-owned naim uniti (2010 model) ? 2. Buying the new Naim ND5XS and adding to my existing nait. (i know this is about £1900)? 3. New...

I'm new to streaming and wanted to find secure, qaulity HD downloads. I know NAIM offer a service but who else does with a wider stream of music ?Thanks

A few weeks back I looked for updates to my readynas 2 firmware, and found support for a cloud backup sollution called symform.Interesting features of this backup is,  Instead of paying for storage you let Symform access your nas as part of the...

I bought a Netgear GS605 switch but saw when I got home, that it had an internet connection also. Did I buy the wrong one and should I have bought FS105 instead? My idea was to connect, by cable, the switch to my router and in the switch connect...
