Synology is the next platform for MinimServer 2. I am working on it now.

Hi Simon. Thanks for this. Surprised myself (as a non-techy) by actually getting it to work; sort of.

I now have all the BBC stations in the Playlist and can select them. However, they take about half a minute to start up (which I could live with) and then only play for about 2 seconds (which is a bit more problematic!) When I press 'play' they start again and do the same thing.

Tried Dash and HLS options with same result. The File Format when the station starts up says "AAC 48kHz 16 bit"

MinimServer is v8.5.3 and MinimStreamer is v7.15. All of this is on a Synology DS210j and my streamer is a TEAC NT-505. All my FLAC files play perfectly from the NAS, as does TIDAL. Can you help me please?

Thank you.
