I am new to this forum, forgive me if I seem a little behind most of you. Here is my setup. I have a computer running JRiver on an ethernet with a NAS and an Audio Research Reference DAC/Media Bridge. I have noticed that I can select an album in JRiver and get it streaming to the DAC. When I close the JRiver application, the music continues, as if JRiver has nothing to do with actual streaming from the NAS to the DAC over the ethernet. Apparently it doesn't. Incidentally, I am using DLNA to control the handshaking between JRiver and the Media Bridge.
That is the most convenient method I have found to manage music selection.
So I am wondering if my interpretation is correct -- JRiver doesn't have anything to do with conversion of the FLAC files (on the NAS) to a PCM stream, that all happens on the Media Bridge. Its only role in this setup is to coordinate file selection between the Media Bridge and the NAS. Is that right?
