Minim stream being throttled on QNAP NAS ?

It only "settled" for a while on track 14 of 17. before giving up entirely.
It really is startling how bad it is at the moment compared to a couple of nights ago.

Do you experience the stuttering when playing to BubbleUPnP's local renderer?
Have you configured transcoding in MinimServer?
Are you playing to a single Sonos speaker?
Are you using BubbleUPnP Server?

If you're not actively browsing, MinimServer's resource usage should be minimal as it's only serving the requested tracks over http.
If you click on the vertical ellipis next to a track in BubbleUPnP to get the track's URL, you can check the download speed yourself:

Code:

curl "http://192.168.*.*:9790/minimserver/*/flac/Adele/2011*20-*2021/01.01.flac" -o "01.01.flac"

I can't remember how Sonos buffers the track but it may give you some insight.
