MinimServer SLOW!

[promao]

Folks,

Thanks for all the help. We have been searching in the wrong direction, I think.

Before splashing money on a new airport extreme I tried, out of curiosity, the Linn Kinsky app, instead of the Auralic one /DS Lightning.

Kinky does not show this abnormal situation, Auralic Aries starts to play the music immediately as soon as I select it on Kinsky.

So, it's app related, at least partially. To sum up:

- With DS Lightning and Sinology server all OK (Except that MinimServer is way better);
- With DS Lightning and MinimServer there is a 30 second gap between selecting a music and it starting to play;
- With Kinsky and MinimServer server all OK.

Go figure.

Thanks again for all help, I am using Kinsky (although I like DS Lightning better) until this is fixed.

Small glitch from Auralic's app possibly but it does not detract from the great quality of their gear and the excellent support, I am sure that if this is App related as it seems to be, they will figure it out very quickly.

I will post the developments in case anyone is out there with same problem.

Thanks again for all the help.

39 seconds after I pressed play on the iPad the message appears. Music starts immediately.

So after all its network related... Right?

As I am used to spinning vinyl this is the time it takes to pick a record from the shelf and start playing it, but I am looking to optimize it.

Thanks for making clear what the problem was (is).

It seems like it, but I don't understand why doesn't this happen with the Synology media server as well. If it's network related, it should take just as long for the Synology media server to receive a Play request.

Do you by any chance have a VPN server running on the NAS? This could possibly cause a problem like this. If so, please try disabling the VPN server and try again.
