Hi All I'm going out of my mind trying to sort out this problem.

Firstly I'm no longer that computer literate as i was years ago both due to an age thing and the speed that technology is revolving!

I have the Pioneer N50 and have that hard wired via Ethernet to a desktop PC running Minimserver.

I am having issues whereby 'initially when playing internet radio the N50 would crash and restart. But no the radio seems to be holding out but the music files when streamed using various Android Apps BubbleUPNP, HIFI CAST, and even Media Monkey is causing the N50 to crash. It appears to be certain songs/albums at the moment and I've deleted some of the ones that were doing it but I also have others still on the PC that are crashing the N50.

The PC is an old DELL XPS420 Quad Core from a few years back but I have from memory about 3GB of RAM in it and the files I'm playing are FLAC.

I would be really grateful if somebody could take the time to help me with this as i just want to enjoy listening to my music without getting stressed each time it crashes.

I've ruled out power issues as I've tried several different plug sockets and also my wife is able to plug her IPHONE into the front USB and play for hours without any issues.

I'm wondering if it's a file compatibility issue either directly with the N50 or Minimserver? I didn't originally think so as it was also doing it on radio but that appears to have resolved itself.

Any help or advise would be very much appreciated.
