I can stop the WAV playback, I can even time seek backwards and forwards but I cannot pause playback. This seems to affect both MP3's and FLAC/WAV. I contacted Denon and they said (after some deliberation) it was a server problem, strikes me as strange but after some prodding, they indicated that AssetUPnP could pause (sort of ). I checked but then the format was transcoded to LPCM (the official DLNA minimum audio format).
In the end the Denon solution was to use WMP and a FLAC plugin from XIPH.org. and it worked ! so FLAC files can be paused via a network with Denon, however that was a very complicated and messy solution and needless to say none of the Minimserver functionality we all like so much.
Is there any way to adapt Minimserver so that the Denon Pause function can work (sorry for the long post, but this has been going on a while with Denon).

I was also in contact with the Denon support about a similar issue. With the Denon DNP F109 it is possible to pause MP3 files, bot not FLAC or WAV. Referring to the Denon support, this is due to a myterious DLNA pause flag which has to be set by the server. MinimServer does not yet provide this pasue flag. Unfortunately, the Denon support is not willing to give technical details about this pause flag.
However, it is a good idea to raise complaints about this issues with the Denon support. The more users do this, the higher is the probability they will do something about this.
