Set-up was easy enough, and while it worked and sounded fine, an annoying old problem with various DLNA implementations reared it's ugly head: spotty presentation of the album art. I'm already using a Raspberry Pi3 as a Moode UPnP Renderer (endpoint) in my living room system to great effect with a Resonessence Herus DAC connected via USB, so why not use an additional RPi3 in server mode?īecause I already use and love the Moode distro for RPi3, I tried that first knowing it had a setting in it's configuration menu for use as a DLNA server.
Kind of a waste of electricity, the lure of instant multi-room music streaming causing me to be lazy and never power down my computer. I'll still use the JRiver/Mac mini combo for local playback where it resides in my bedroom, but I'd like to have a network server elsewhere, primarily to be available to stream music at times the mini is either switched off, or in midst of a software update, or running a CPU intensive application for example.Īdditionally, although the Mac mini is a very energy efficient computer, I don't like leaving it on 24/7 just for the ability to stream music to different rooms, but I had found myself increasingly doing just that.

(I know some like all the detailed differences music cut by cut but I'm more of a generalist and listen for musicality as my test rather then documenting details.Lately I have contemplated transitioning my network music server off of my daily driver Mac mini running JRiver. In my system I can readily hear the differences I've described. associated with this technology the but I can usually get it all working together and help others get up and running. I also admit to not completely using correctly all the terms and jargon like renderer, player, etc. Sorry I'm not at home sitting in front of a PC so my directions might be a little off.

However to use JPlay Streamer (which was easy to do and sounds great by the way) one either has to install Minumserver or use jRiver and turn on the DNLA setting. JPlay uses the "Open Home" technology to make this work which is similar to or an updtated form to UPnP and or DNLA.Īt this point I'm not sure if JPlay and Asset are compatible. It is still available to download at the PS Audio site I believe.Īs for jplay I'm using it in streamer mode. At its last incarnation it would still only play via DNLA not USB which precluded its use with JPlay.
McGowan blamed software jitter possibly related to the compiler?) but the differences were significant. It's SQ changed somewhat at each Elyric update. Elyric sounded much more natural than jRiver or Minumserver. It also compiled the library as it scanned it just a little differently than Minumserver or jRiver. I used to work a lot with Elyric PS Audio's discontinued player. To be fair I didn't discuss the SQ of Minumserver until he tried it himself.

When I played files through minumserver the treble sounded a little more extended than jRiver but to me a little threadbare as compared to jRiver.Ī friend asked me about Minumserver and I explained how to use it and found it had much the same sonic signature as I'd found. If I try Asset, I'd assume it would work the same way. I would click on it and jRiver could access the Minumserver library. One thing I found immediately I didn't like the way Minumserver sorted my music files and grouped them.Īfter Minumserver was run it appeared in the list of sources on the left side of jRiver.
It built the library very quickly as opposed to jRiver. It's been a couple of years since I used Minumserver.īut this is what I recall.
