Yes, when I go with the PC I can see the .dsf files and I can also play them on the PC using Foorbar with DSD plugin.
The auralic see the DSD folders but not the .dsf files contains in the folders.
it's strange on the PC I see the files and not with the Auralic. Maybe it has something to do with the DLNA version in the OS 6.

Yes - as I said earlier, the built in DLNA (minidlna) doesn't support that format.
I think you need to install a lightning server on the PC that is set up to access the NAS media shares, and use that instead of the NAS DLNA. Then the app would see it (when the PC is on). https://support.auralic.com/hc/en-us/categories/200358867-AURALiC-Lightning-Server

Yes, the Auralic Altair G1 as the built-in Lightning Server and when I try this I can play the DSD files.
Well, I have to use Lightning Server or I use Roon but the software is $$$
