Volume control over UPnP/ DNLA

My renderer is a Linn Selekt DSM, and I know from using a variety of different control points from Linn and also third parties that it's possible for a DNLA control point to manipulate the renderer's volume remotely as you'd expect. With MM5 (latest production version) running on fully up to date ...

MiniPlayer on Windows 11 does not work [#19615]

I was trying to use the "Micro Player" on Windows 11, latest version, MM5 latest version gold. A small modal says: The MicroPlayer is not yet enabled. To enable it... And those instructions probably worked for earlier versions of Windows, but if this relies on "toolbars" then I think it's not going ...

Re: Unwanted Auto-Conversion

Ok, we got to the bottom of this via that ticket. There are two places you can set "auto conversion" for a DNLA renderer: Tools -> Options -> Media Sharing -> Server OPTIONS -> Auto-conversion. Play -> Play To -> [cog] I had disabled / removed all the settings from the first, but the second was ...

Re: Unwanted Auto-Conversion

Done - thanks. I'll post a concluding update here when we get to that. According to MM5 FLAC is VBR, so any single figure quoted is presumably subject to the algorithm used, which could be different without there actually being a difference. That doesn't explain the file sizes though, which we're ...

Re: Unwanted Auto-Conversion

(Thanks for trying to help). I can't access the file system inside the renderer. The Linn info window does say it's all 96khz 24-bot FLAC, but that's the sample frequency/ depth, not the actual bit rate, which is what the cache is damaging. The Linn doesn't display/ render artwork, it's too posh to ...

Re: Unwanted Auto-Conversion

Are you saying that the file on the device doesn't match the file on your PC? Not quite - the file in the cache is a different size. The player is a Linn and is certainly happy with the biggest meanest bit-count ever invented - no one needs to transcode for it. ... so I'm wondering if anyone knows ...

Re: Unwanted Auto-Conversion

I encountered the same issue playing FLAC to a 24 bit player... well I'm getting entries in the cache directory, and as I don't want MM to muck around with these files at all, that's worrying. Even if it's converting lossless good to lossless good, I don't need that. I tried looking in the settings ...

Old DNLA/ UPnP player, new MM5, auto repeat

Not a defect ... but may help someone else. Feel free to close/ moderate etc. BTW MM5 rocks. Get an old Naim UnitiQute streamer with really cool speakers which has been consuming FLAC from MM via WASAPI since probably MM3 but I can't really remember. The player's so old that the LED display on the ...

Re: Android uPnP Render: no streaming to Naim?

Latest version... but wait up.... I just loaded some videos as I thought I'd try that, jumped out of my skin when the sound track started coming out of my (rather large) Naim speakers.... I'd left the renderer pointing at that. So I switched back to audio... and now it's working. I'm not sure why ...

Android uPnP Render: no streaming to Naim?

- I've been using Media Monkey with WASAPI output to play FLAC from Media Monkey Windows 10 through an optical connexion to my Naim Qute for some time. - Windows 10 will also stream FLAC (cast to...) the Naim directly. - I can use the NAIM Android APP to play from the Media Monkey uPNP server or ...
