Hi TSmithpam
Got Phantom working wirelessly with Ipeng - very pleased (and a little surprised!)
Had to install Logitech Media Server on my server which allows Ipeng to see and browse music but only my IPeng IOS device appeared as a player at first.
But there is a UPNP/DLNA plugin available free in the third party list of LMS plugins which allows UPNP devices to appear as if they were Squeezebox's and so far everything is working fine. Even better my other UPNP devices have also appeared as 'Players' so I can use IPeng to send music to any of my music players - quite unexpected but a big bonus for me.
There are quite a number of 'tweaks' to the third party plugin - mainly Passthrough which sends the audio unchanged to the Devialet - or Full processing where the application decodes and resamples the tracks before sending them. Lots of other settings you can tweak but all working fine without tweaking so far.
I would guess that PASSTHROUGH is the way to go assuming the Devialet upnp can process the audio?
The only downside is that I have Logitech Media Server and PLEX Server running on the same PC but this doesn't seem to be causing any clashes so far - I don't want to get rid of PLEX as I use it for video rather than audio.
Been looking up Innuous - nice and not daft prices either! Thanks again for your input!
