I've attached the file. Some success. A clean stop/start using the package manager and closing nstream appears to give greater consistency. I was previously using restart from minimwatch and not stopping nstream.

I will go and do further testing with alac:wav24 and flac and mp3 transcoding.

Thanks for this log. Was any audio playing when you clicked 'Save as' to capture the log data?

The log shows that output is being sent to the renderer, but I don't see anything being read from the ALAC file. The log window wraps when it reaches a certain size, so the log doesn't include what happened when the file first started playing. For this, I would need you to capture another trace log and post the minimserver.log file from the Synology (available via File Station in the MinimServer/appData folder). To capture this trace log, please do the following:

1) Stop n-Stream
2) Make sure the MinimServer logging level is set to Info
3) From the Synology Package Center, stop and restart MinimServer
4) Set the stream.transcode property to alac:wav
5) From the minim icon, select 'Show log'
6) From the log window, change the logging level to Trace
7) Restart n-Stream
9) Try to play an ALAC file
10) After 20 seconds, use the log window to change the logging level back to Info
11) Use Synology File Station to upload the minimserver.log file from the MinimServer/appData folder to your computer
12) Zip the minimserver.log file and attach it to a post here

Many thanks!
