Crackling noise with AIR WLAN

[midi]

I have testet the Mac mini solution, but I didn't found a comfortable solution to control iTunes on NAS, WIMP, Spotify - plus I had to use the TV as Display, to small to control it from the sofa 3m away. How do you control your Mac mini ? I think the only solution is direct streaming with the iPad.

Hi midi,

The Mac Mini and the NAS are connected via ethernet to the router/switch. In iTunes, I set the iTunes Media folder location to point to my music folder on the NAS. There is no media server software running on the NAS, just a main folder and sub folders with the artists/albums.

I then install Apple's Remote app on an iPad to control the iTunes library on the Mac Mini. There is some lag but works pretty well and allows me to run the Mac Mini without having to connect a monitor.

Hope this helps.

Yes, this is ok for running the iTunes library, but not helpful für listening Wimp or other streaming services. Therefore I have orderd a Dialog. Now I have read, that this is only able to play with the Devialet 120 in summer . This is a joke !
