I've noticed that if I close nStream and have left it on a track somewhere on the folder hierarchy, there are sometimes problems when I reopen nStream later in the day - I get the connecting message and the track doesn't play. I have to force a clean restart - as per your instructions - to set all back to normal.

I've tried placing nStream and the Uniti at the top level of the Synology Media player i.e. not using Minimserver - before I close nStream. That seems to work and both nStream and Minimserver work first time when I then play a track via Minimserver.

Could it be a connection is somehow left open? Guesswork on my part

I'll continue to experiment.

I'll post back if I can narrow the behaviour down and give a consistent test case.

Thanks again for your help and for the software.

It sounds like this is likely to be a problem with n-Stream or the Naim renderer. I haven't had any other reports of this.

If you can find a way to reproduce this problem consistently, please create a trace log by doing the following:

1) Before you reopen n-Stream, set the MinimServer logging level to Trace
2) Reopen n-Stream

If the track doesn't play,

3) Wait 20 seconds, then set the logging level back to Info
4) Zip the minimserver.log file from the Synology and attach it to a post here

I will look at the log and let you know what is happening.
