Could this be @DavidHB's issue too? He did also mention an OpenHome Player not working with the prototype, if I remember correctly, not just the DSM.

My silly mistake was to miss out the #EXTM3U entry on the first line. I've not manually created a .m3u file before and thought it was an optional comment line, since the AAC stream still worked and there were no warnings in the Minim rescan log. However I should have realised something was not right as the playlist entries in Kazoo were based on the urls rather than the labels. Adding the first line fixed the playlist descriptors and enabled native DASH-FLAC plus transcoding. My older Linn streamer is an original Majik DSM (i.e. no HDMI), my newer one is a Katalyst KDS. As they both work would seem very strange if any Linn players out there could not play the DASH stream.
