Thanks.

Yes. See this page for detailed instructions.

Hi Folks,

New to the forum and thought this thread was a handy entrée as my first post.

Rest assured butterfly75 that the DS415play and Minimserver work beautifully together!

I've recently performed a major technology upgrade in my system in order to move away from a desktop PC music serving solution. After much research (helped in no small part by the good folks on this forum I might add) purchased a DS415play (with 4X4TB HDDs) and opted to run Minimserver on it. Along with this I upgraded my PS Audio Perfectwave DAC II and Bridge (I) combination with a Directstream upgrade kit and a Bridge II.

Finished it all yesterday and, wow, was like a kid in a candy store! Had to tear myself away from the listening chair to go to bed!

Simon, you've done a great job! Please, please, please keep up the good work

Cheers,
MikeK

PS The UPnP Control Point replacement is still a work in progress. I'm getting by at the moment using the 'control point' functionality in Windows Media Player running on Windows 10. Hope to replace that 'soon'. Argh! More research
