Other than their famously rude and annoying non-support via their forum, I've been nothing shy of thrilled with JRiver, and there are some very helpful people on their forum, if not JRiver themselves. I could have stuck with AssetUPnP that entire time too, but after about 2 years I bought a JRiver Master License so that I could run the same program on my Mac and Linux machines at home, as well on Windows at work, where I require the GUI and only use it as a desktop client and not a server.
You absolutely can't go wrong at those kinds of prices, even if you'll not get a Roon-like UI or overall experience, but at that spend it doesn't really matter, these programs can at least buy time even if someday a move to Roon is in the cards.įor me personally, it's bought 6 or so years, when I made the switch from iTunes and AirPlay as my server/streamer arrangement. I personally paid $10 for Asset, on some special offer as a previous buyer of dBPoweramp. The same developer offers dBPoweramp, another good program. That would not be Roon, nor Audirvana either.Īsset, Minim, and JRiver all fit that bill, and are in very wide use on the Raspberry Pi hardware, though certainly many years ago that might not have been the case when you made the move to Roon.Īsset is $37 and you get 5 licenses for that, any and all Windows, macOS, Linux (including Raspberry Pi) machines can run it, and it does work well. Really I just use the JRemote control point app to browse and play music from the server, or for that matter BubbleUPnP and mconnect also both work very well with JRiver as server, while adding Qobuz (or TIDAL) access to the picture.īut the OP's thread topic/question here was quite specific, it's asking which DLNA/UPnP media server is recommended for hi-rez and specifically DSD compatibility, and can run on a NAS or Raspberry Pi. I didn't really have gripes with Asset, it ran just fine for me as a headless server, but in the end I decided to go with the Raspberry Pi version of JRiver and it offers the choice of headless or GUI, I opt for the GUI even though typically barely ever look at it. Thanks in advance! I've noticed a lack of information on this so perhaps this will become a thread that helps lots of folks.Click to expand.Both MinimServer and AssetUPnP have supported DSD for a very long time now, though in the case of Asset only the paid or "Premium" version. This service is extremely important to me (for discovery) so any help here is greatly appreciated. Soundcloud - HOW can i get Soundcloud on my 851N? Seems like folks talk about 'Chromecast' but Chromecast use HDMI and there is no HDMI on the 851N. How do i use the phone to pick and play music on the 851N?ģ. but when I use the app and hit "Play" it plays from my phone. I have a subscription and log in fine etc. Suggestions? Happy to switch to another media server (I use Plex for movies, but doesn't look like 851N supports Plex?).Ģ. Success! The only problem is, what to use for cover-flow from a mobile device? I need to be able to use tablet/phone to page through Netflix style and hit Play there. After poking around, the CA docs themselves recommend MinimServer MinimServer which I did setup and the 851N finds all my 3000 flac albums now. At first, it found the media server, but only indexed the handful of (junk). I'll ask about each of my 'sources' seperatly:ġ. After some research, I finally pulled the trigger on the 851N.Īmazing sound, beautiful build quality but I am having some setup challenges.
