Hey
Thanks for the tips and guide. I’ve had a good play but unfortunately just couldn’t get it to be stable. Kept finding the UPnP would stop and sometimes just flip to other players on the network, or the phantoms would disappear from the list.
Although not as nice UI as the sense app, I got more stability with mconnect when using UPnP.
It was good to explore deeper into the workings though, and as a result I feel more confident to try different things, so thanks for the suggestions.
I’ve now reverted back to the optical connection for stability reasons mainly. This way I keep the sense app UI.
Is there any known sound quality differences between UPnP and using optical? I tried a number of test tracks and couldn’t pick up a difference. I’ll test with other ears and also see, but for me it was the same (good sound).
Think I’m concluding the high res file drops I get are more linked to the internet bandwidth constraints. A few tests late at night and early morning seems to show it runs ok when less drag on the system from the family devices
.
One other I did notice in the tests was a misbalance bias to the right speaker after a drop out. I need to restart server to get the phantoms equal in stereo after. Odd.
I’ve put a few queries out to contacts at innuos as well, so will report back if any further tips after they get back to me in new year.
Cheers all
