I used SSH and looked at the log while the files are being transcoded. Untranscoded files are using 3-5% of the CPU but occasionally will jump up to 15-20%.
Transcoded files are usually requiring 70-100% CPU and I get dropouts above 97% or so.

It's just the one process (labelled 3948 Root) that is consuming the CPU. There are other processes around but I've not seen any of them demand more than 10% of the CPU.

I'm pretty sure that your Duo v2 has the same processor as my NV+ so it seems odd yours is working just fine when mine's not - I just tried that same 24/192 download file from Linn and had the same issues with that one. Just like the other 24/192 file it gets 2 secs of play then pauses. CPU 99%.

Any further thoughts or should I go to the ReadyNAS forum?

You might be using the wrong version of Java. What do you see at the start of the MinimServer log? On my Duo, the Java version information is:

Java(TM) SE Embedded Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_21-b11)
Java HotSpot(TM) Embedded Client VM (build 23.21-b01, mixed mode)
