I use dBpoweramp ripper to rip my CDs to FLAC. It plays back fine with all metadata including album art. Double click on the track uses MM and plays. I want to try AIFF files. I was able to rip by dBpoweramp to AIFF, but unable to play them. What do I need to do? Please help.

My 609 was picked up for repairs today and should get it back within 10 days as per Onkyo. Now is the time to ask you all: What system are you using for streaming Music & Video that you are very satisfied with. I would be very happy to hear from you? I need to have a fresh think as to what I should be doing.

Thank you for your efforts. I know the fault now. Onkyo took a long time to reply and they have accepted liability to refund or repair the 2009-2012 affected receivers. This may help others: http://www.eu.onkyo.com/en/customer-...am-118747.html William

Apology for the delay in responding to your advice. I was having difficulty in pairing the two TP-Links for some reason. Now it is ok. The Onkyo DLNA now sees 3 sources (shot attached). BubbleUpnP (installed on my smart phone) was suggested to check if there are any drop-outs using this. The very few tracks that I have on my phone plays but there are very short drop-outs- not as many as when I use the Serviio. I don't understand your "The BubbleUPnP app's built-in renderer can be used as a test substitute for the Onkyo receiver and would normally be able stream the FLAC & mp3 files from Serviio without any issues" statement though. TP-Link to Onkyo is AV 200+ Powerline adaptor with AC pass through; MAC address: 647002325450,pass word DUZZ-XEVu-EDCW-UVWA, model Tl-TA251 (UK), SN 12788800610. TP-Link to Virginmedia is AV200 Minipowerline Adaptor, MAC address:F8D1116AF9C5,pass word KHVI-ZZRP-AATG-GSSS, model TL-PA211 (UK) Ver 1.2, SN 11B97102442. (I did not have to use any of this to set-up the TP-Links). "First thing to try would to see if you can do stream and play your music files from Serviio on the Android device using the BubbleUPnP app, firstly with your laptop's original WiFi connection (and no ethernet cable to the router). Next try the BubbleUPnP app with the latop connected to the router by ethernet cable (and latop's WiFi disconnected)". How do I use BubbleUPnP to play the tracks that are on my laptop? Can I download BubbleUPnP on to my laptop? John I will leave it at this at the moment till I have further instruction from you and I understand what is required. Thanks. William Additional info: I used BubbleUPnP on my phone, selected local renderer, on library selected SErviio (User PC) and media audio and could select all my tracks on my laptop. My phone plays all the tracks with no drop-out whatsoever. So how can I play them through the Onkyo receiver to my HiFi set-up. Regards DLNA Streaming-2.doc

Hi, Since my last post I have lost the connection completely. The receiver does not find Serviio. So I don't know where to go from here. can anyone help? Thanks

John & Kevin 1969, 1. PC directly connected to Receiver by Ethernet cable (laptop still wifi connected to Virginmedia): Receiver sees Serviio (user PC). Trying to open audio, message "no item" 2. Receiver connected to TP-Link, VM Hub connected to TP-Link and PC connected to VM Hub by Ethernet: Receiver sees Serviio (user PC). Trying to open audio track, message"no item" TP-Link AV200 Mini Powerline Adapter on Hub side 200 Mbps and TP-Link AV Powerline Adapter with AC pass through 200Mbps on Receiver side. Receiver (Onkyo TX-NR609) operated by its remote control. Unable to connect Receiver downstairs to Hub upstairs for reason of length of cable. But if this process is necessary to determine the fault, I will purchase one. I trust I have provided enough info. Please feel free if I need to do anymore tests. William DLNA Streaming.doc

John, Thank you for your patience. In my previous post may be I have not made statements that are completely true. I will repeat the testing, write down the results and post again. At the moment I need to attend to some other business. I will post as soon as possible and also give some background information to understand my problem. William Kevin 1969 may also get more information from the post to follow.

I connected Ethernt cable to the receiver directly and now the Serviio server is not detected and I cannot see any files to select. So what do I do? Perhaps I need much more basic detailed instruction how to go about doing what you and Cebolla have suggested. Any further advice would be most welcome.

Hi John, Thanks for the response. 1. I connected the laptop to the hub directly with Ethernet cable (all other connections left as before) and the Onkyo shows "no items found". This has thrown my confidence. What is the reason for this? 2. I would be very grateful if you could explain the test by connecting Ethernet cables. How will the connection chain be done? Sorry for the bother. William

My set-up: Virginmedia Hub connected by Ethernet to TP-Link plugged to house electric. Similar connection from Onkyo Receiver to house electric. Music tracks ( Mp3 and FLAC) reside on Laptop windows 10 OS. Laptop on WiFi connection to Virginmrdia Home network (laptop not wired). Serviio 1.5.2 running on laptop. When music is played through Receiver, there is unacceptable drop-out. What could possibly be the cause? Any help most welcome. Thanks.
