![]() ![]() The data is stored using a computer-based file system and transmitted across a network using a protocol designed for transmission speeds well in excess of those required for plain old audio. I'm sorry, but I've read enough of these threads over time, and I now feel the urge to stick my oar in. Has anyone tried linaer power suplies on the two bay units? My NAS has an internal power supply – so changing this is not an option. Should the Synology be only used as a music server only – mine backs up multiple PCs I use the Synology music server and find that with my Naim NDS FLAC sounds beter transcoded to WAV (but I think this is a very specific Naim issue)?. How about placing a Synology on an Iosacosutoic Gaias or for example? Because the sound is less ‘muddy’ there is perhaps a (?false) impression of less bass There is more depth and greater differentiation between components on complex tracks. I have just tried an ATL DC Blocker between my Synology and the wall socket and do hear an improvement. I also have another laptop that has WOL and my 4tb of storage drives connected to it that I use as a backup system for all my (non-media) files but I like to keep those separate and offline unless I need them.Īnyhooo, thanks for the help so far and I’ll spend some more time later.Many of us use a Synology NAS for our digital collections (I use DS1515+) and this thread is to seek opinions from fellow users as to whether it is possible to get a ‘better’ sound output I have a few Pi’s sitting around doing nothing so I may just set up something simple (like OpenELEC) but I will see where it takes me. I am out with the family today (for some reason they are not interested in Linux and UPnP lol) but I will start working on a permanent solution when I get some time later. That was a positive enough point for me to call it a night and go to bed ![]() All FLAC files appear now under the Kodi UPnP server and all other files (MP3, video, images etc.) are available directly from the drives (via the router). I pointed Kodi at only the folder containing FLAC files and once it had loaded them to the library (and I had set the correct UPnP permissions) all the android devices and UPnP control apps could suddenly see the FLAC files without issue. Again, user error, but it was getting late and I was probably not in the best of my capacities to fault find.įinally I just gave up and installed Kodi (another program I haven’t used for quite some time). I also tried Gerbera but I could not get the browser UI to run. This is obviously due to user error as it is a while since I used Ubuntu (I didn’t even realize that it now has a software installer function until after I had installed most of the stuff via terminal). It worked perfectly with local hard drives connected via USB. I tried Asset UPnP but I couldn’t get it to connect with my networked drives at all (the whole drives, not just FLAC). I was testing things out until the early hours last night. My preference would be Tablet (running UAPP) > DAC > Amp and control the UAPP playback from my phone. My aim is just to be able to wirelessly control a device that is connected to a DAC by means of another android device. However, any app that is capable of upnp control (such as Bubble Upnp, Hifi Cast etc.) fails to see any content in the folders. I can access all the same flac files from file explorers on Android and I can even play them without issue in local playback apps, such as UAPP on the device. They can see and play all mp3 files, they can see movie content, image content, and even the full folder structure, but once I open a folder that contains flac files, they all say that the folder is empty. My issue is that any of the upnp control point apps I use, they fail to see the flac files on my NAS. I am trying to set up either an android device (running UAPP) or a DAP (M2X) connected to a DAC as a upnp renderer. ![]() I have my music collection on hard drives connected to a router, sharing via smb but also with a DLNA server activated. I am not sure if any of you will be able to help but I have spent a fair few hours trying to resolve the issue I am having without any luck. ![]()
