CD Box Sets Playing One At A Time

[DavidHB]

Right. In a streaming system, you have three primary components, all of them a combination of hardware and software, that are networked together:

• The player, also called the renderer;
• the server, which is your NAS with MinimServer on it, where your music is stored;
• the Control Point, which is whatever device you use to select and play your music, for example (in my case) BubbleDS on my Android tablet or Kazoo on my PC.

Note that some players use a normal IR remote and an LCD screen on the player to select the music; in such cases, the Control Point is integrated with the player.

When you installed MinimServer on yoor NAS, you should also have installed its control program MinimWatch on your PC. This puts an Minim icon (which should be green) in your system tray. Right-click on this icon, select Properties from the menu and you will see a property called contentDir which stores the path to your music library.

If all that's clear and working as advertised, you should be able to answer the remaining questions.
