♪ Playing All Along the Watchtower by The Alan Bown! from Hidden Masters: The Jess Roden Anthology (2013) (Local • 893kbps VBR, 16bit, 44.1kHz, -10.01dB, FLC) This version was released BEFORE the Jimi Hendrix version. Reportedly Hendrix saw The Alan Bown! in concert and was taken by their...

There is also “Stream What You Hear”. The original version has a memory leak but the version re-written in Rust works well. This will stream all audio that hits your PCs sound card

Not Ultra but WiiM Pro Plus setup in conjunction with my turntable and Mission 778x. This allows me to record vinyl and monitor if needed. The purist may say that I should be using the analog input on the Mission for the turntable but I see no reason to do so especially as the Mission has 2...

♪ Playing Who're You by Fela Kuti from Fela's London Scene (1971) (Local • 939kbps VBR, 16bit, 44.1kHz, -7.49dB, FLC)

One of my favourite artists and imho the best male vocalist you may never have heard of. Blue eyed soul, funk and blues. FLAC from my original vinyl copy. ♪ Playing Deeper In Love by Jess Roden from Stonechaser (1980) (Local • 909kbps VBR, 16bit, 44.1kHz, -2.44dB, FLC)

The ARC is never more than 16/48 but the Phono ADC is supposedly 24/192 capable. What were you playing over WiFi? It must have been 16/44.1 or 16/48

I wasn't sitting in the prime listening seat when I took the photo. There is a slight angle on the camera in order to include the turntable in the picture! I agree that the speakers appear to be sandwiched but they aren't really as the KEFs don't have back ports so the soundwaves emanate...

I use NFS quite a bit - Raspberry Pi as Lyrion server with NAS storage mounted via NFS. That is quick even though I have 65k files to deal with. My players/renderers include multiple WiiMs. I have never experienced a seek problem. However the NAS also serves the same files via SMB to my PC's...

There is no support within the WiiM Home app for NFS (is there?) so there must be something else serving the files to WiiM via SMB. If I am reading the earlier posts correctly then whatever it is has to get the file via NFS before providing it to the WiiM via SMB. This cannot be very efficient...

What you are doing is opening the file on the player (WiiM) which can start playback when it has sufficient data but as you say seeking won’t work until all data is loaded. This isn’t a very efficient mechanism. A media server (Minimserver or similar) runs on the NAS (or elsewhere on your...

That is an unusual resolution (16/96) where is it from?

I too have come up with a workaround to allow me to "record" stuff but I would love to see a proper tape loop built in but have the output in the form of a USB-B out that is 24/96 capable or higher to connect direct to a PC for "recording".

Definitely a case of horses for courses. Use better server software directly on the NAS. If it is a name brand NAS then it likely has a number of options built in or available as plugins that will be much better choices. On converting WAV to FLAC. Use the paid (Reference) version of dbPoweramp...

♪ Playing Walk On By by Isaac Hayes from Hot Buttered Soul (Vinyl) (1970) (Local • 2501kbps VBR, 24bit, 96kHz, -3.16dB, FLC) FLAC from recently acquired Vinyl copy.

Yep. He loves his music
