RadyNas DUO V2 / SBTouch / FLAC 24/192

When playing these files via Touch (with EDO app to enable 24/192) there is buffering every few seconds. I am exploring a myriad of possible issues but would like to check the load on the Nas processor remotely from my computer as the files are playing. I have gone into dashboard, settings, info etc but can see no portal. Any help appreciated.

    What app or other service are you using to stream the music?

    The Duo v2 does not have a powerful processor. If the audio is not in the right format to play on your client device or is too high quality to stream over your network then you will run into issues.
  • I am using LMS (logitech media server). I can stream the files successfully from the ReadyNas if I use LMS on my laptop, just when using LMS in the nas that it has problems. I am also pursuing the notion that the NAS is having to convert the files down to 96 for the DAC to receive them, but that is another story!

    So perhaps you'd be better off with e.g. a ReadyNAS 312 which has a CPU powerful enough to remux audio.
  • That is on my mind... easily done, just have to make sure it is the right one

    Cheers
