![]() ![]() " This ist actually not a product I want to buy. Besides the app always looses the connection to the library and crashes on routing songs to a renderer. "is very slow, you can make and drink a cup of coffee before using the library. Another user offert some feedback on mconnet (see: ). I tried mconnetlite - which is - to be polite - ugly.

Of course you are limited to 16/44.1 (CD quality) due to AirPlay protocol constraint ![]() No artists artwork and/or background informations, just albums artwork. The Lite version is free, the Player version, payed, has portrait orientation and the HD version,payed, has landscape orientation. It can play on your iOS device or, using AirPlay, to any AirPlay compatible device using MinimServer as media server. In addition - I would be happy, if MinimServer / the contralpoint application could take advantage on artwork for artists and could deliver background information - but first things first: which is your recommendation? I'm searching for an application which can take advantage of the music source MinimServer and can play on my devices. I do not own a upnp / openhome compatible hardware nor do I actually intend to buy one. In my configuration I like to play my music a) at home (LAN-Network) over appleTV linked audio and / or to wifi speakers (Bowers & Wilkens A5 and MonitorAudio S300) and b) remote on my iOS devices (with / without headset). Is there a good iOS / MacOS software to use the MinimServer as source for music? If anyone here knows to get AR working after a successful installation, I sure would appreciate some help.(04-06-2020 15:39)henning65 Wrote: Good afternoonĪnd I somehow had the impression: MinimServer can't serve as home for my music?! So - to be cristal clear on this - I like to reopen the question. I know AR works, and I must be missing some setting or configuration item, or even unblocking a port. I had a member response and suggestion, but I had already done what he suggested, which was to enable exclusive mode on the audio device in the Windows Sound Control dialog. I have posted in the AudiophileStyle forum on the thread where the AR author hangs out. And the drag-n-drop debug mode wasn't working either. BUT IT WAS WORKING! I switched back to Audiophile UPnP Renderer, and it still would/could not play the tracks. But TB wants to be a server too, and upon startup always prompts for its music folder. Once I configured TB to enable "Open Home" and told Win10 security to allow the network connection TB showed up in BubbleUPnP as a renderer, and began to play selected tracks. Next I uninstalled AR and downloaded and installed TuneBrower. I tried to drag-n-drop tracks from the PCs local drive to the AR window (debug capability), but nothing happened, not even the track name appeared. I received the message "Action failed (Code: 501)" on BubbleUPnP, which turns out to be a generic message from the renderer that basically means "I can't do that". I selected a track to play, and the track name popped up in AR's window on the PC, but nothing happened. From BubbleUPnP I has able to select MinimServer for my library (UPnP server) and Audiophile Renderer as my UPnP renderer. It started right up, displaying its operating window I did not enable VSTs (which are optional). I downloded BubbleUPnP on my Android tablet and downloaded Audiophile UPnP Renderer v2.3 and the MIcrosoft Visual C++ (x86) 2015 Redistributible on my PC. So, ready to move into the world of UPnP I installed MinimServer 2 on my Synology NAS for my 'Library' and copied over the music files (.flac and. I used Amazon Music Ultra-HD to verify 24/96 files played properly (my local files were 16/44.1 CD copies). Then I hooked up the downstream analog gear and began playing local music files right away. Then I hooked up my Benchmark USB DAC and configured it in Windows Sound Control. I had started by building a mini-ITX PC and installing Widows 10 Home intending it to be a dedicated music server. After seeing the Audiophile UPnP Renderer show up in a couple of forums with positive reviews I believed that I had found what I needed.
