Do any trace messages appear in the log window when you do step 3?

Simon,

The MiND iPad is a control point, at least it looks like one to me. It offers a choice of three sources (MinimServer, my Acer laptop, and vTuner internet radio), of which only the radio is working at the moment. The MiND box is described in its manual this way: "Streaming Module Features:
UPnP Renderer (Universal Plug & Play) ● DLNA 1.5 Compatibility ● vTuner Internet Radio" and more, so I think it's a renderer. In fact, if I use the eLyric iPad control point, the MiND appears as one of the choices in the renderer list, and I can get music through it -- but no gapless. I assume that for gapless to work one would have to use the Moon app. But wait; isn't it the renderer, not the control point, that governs whether gapless is possible? I dunno. I just tried the Kinsky control point, and it has no problem playing music stored on MinimServer via the MiND, but again no gapless. If I choose Moon MiND as the "room" on Kinsky, it automatically chooses Moon MiND as a source, but lets me pick MinimServer or my laptop as the Library.

To answer your second question, there is no activity on the trace log when I try to access Minim from the MiND app.

Thanks - David
