Article: The Complete Guide To HiFi UPnP / DLNA Network Audio

[Richard Dale]

Thanks for a very interesting article. I've recently been experimenting with mounting a disk on my local network via SMB/Samba and then NFS. The next thing I wanted to try was the Linux software 'miniDLNA' to stream music tracks from on Raspberry Pi to another. Has anyone tried this? I wonder how well it interoperates with the iOS and Android tablet apps.

 

Is it possible to store media tracks on a disk in one format and stream them as another format? For instance, could I store files as Apple Lossless, but stream them as AIFF?
