Well, there are plenty of us with the problem, so it shouldn't be too difficult for Devialet to reproduce. I think they have an innovative way of creating what is a soundcard working over IP, but when you get into that layer of software, you are working with Windows interfaces in a way not many have done before.
I used to use a uPnP server with a streamer pre-Devialet and once I had moved to a wired network the number of dropouts and other nasties just went to zero.
I think Devialet would be better served giving us a uPnP interface as a priority, higher priority than working on the DSD interface.
I did do some tests yesterday - using 2.1.3 I successfully streamed 24/96 files for 2.5 hours without any white noise, then on moving to 24/192 it went to white noise within the hour. There are some weird entries in the windows error log, but it's hard to tell if they are related.
