Hi Simon. Yes I have tried transcoding but to no avail. There are several posts during the last few years from forum members with Cambridge players (NP30, SM6 SM6v2, CNX, Azure 851N) all of which don't work with streams - you diagnosed the problem being that the player is sending byte-range requests as when playing from a file in a music library. Sadly, Cambridge don't seem to have any plans to update their firmware which is a great shame as sonically, the players are excellent pieces of kit.

Regards,
John.
