Control point for USB port ?

my question looks simple, but I stupidly can't find an answer.

I have installed Minimserver on a friend's Mac Mini, whose music is on an external drive conencted to the Mac; this is fine.

But the music is to be sent on one USB port of the mac mini which is connected to a DAC (DCS Elgar and also a DCS Purcell upsampler) through an external device made by a Hong-Kong geek to allow a USB input to the DCS Elgar (it does not have any).

So far, I have succeeded installing Audirvana but the interface is very low level (same as iTunes, i.e. no possibility to use folder view, remote ipad only through itunes, etc).

But when I use Miniserver, of course all control points are searching a device on the network, which they don't find.

So : is there a possibility to use a control point on an ipad / iphone which connects to the minimserver, but uses the USB port as a renderer ?

Sorry if my question is trite, but I have not found any answer so far.

Best !

You need a UPnP renderer running on the Mac Mini to make this work. I believe PlugPlayer can do this. There might be other options.
