![]() This may stress a NAS, but I guess it depends on individual NAS processors and what sort of processing you want to do and how many streams you want to process at the same time. ![]() If there's a renderer built-in then that implies audio processing. Like, is it going to be a just a database/library server where clients will connect to it in order to get data, but the actual playing and audio processing will be done by the clients? In which case, this is what a NAS should excel at and I think this is probably what people are asking for. ![]() I think so much is up in the air at the moment, but it depends how much functionality would be built into an eventual server/embedded version. PS: For people looking at DLNA DMRs, Rasberry Pi, etc for extra locations around the house, I built this client with all new hardware for < $200US shipped to my door. I'll have to post my JMark score in that thread later, but if I remember correctly, it is ~950. Albums/Playlists, and even changing after a complete track, is not an issue. If I get too aggressive with flipping around tracks though (say switching tracks after listening for just a few seconds a couple times in a row), I will get ~10-seconds of stutter until it catches up. Navigating with Gizmo works much better, especially when playing all-day DJ and changing tracks on the fly. Navigating can be a bit sluggish sometimes as well, particularly with the remote. If I want to listen to them, I have to push them from the server with conversion. The only issue is that I can not down-sample SACD ISO (severe stuttering completely unplayable). Music is fine over-sampled to 24/192 w/ ~50% CPU usage while displaying Milkdrop. I watch video w/ ROSQ without issue using the integrated graphics. It has 4GB of RAM and a 32GB SSD running Win7 32-bit. ![]() Just to get an idea of minimum specs, I also run a full version of MC on an Atom D2700 (2.13GHz, Dual Core, 1M Cache) client. ![]()
