Windows 10 Stutter Streaming DSD Over Local Network

[gordec]

I have been using Windows 10 -> local ethernet via switch -> iFi Pro iDSD. Using both Jriver and Audirvana+ as DLNA server. All files except DSD play perfectly smooth. DSD occasionally will start playing smooth, but a few minutes later start to stutter. I feel it's either a Windows issue or network issue, but a gigabit local network should be fast enough. I have messed around with every possible Jriver DLNA setting in terms of DSD over PCM, convert DSD to 192 first, same results.  Any thoughts?

I faced similar problem. Try to set JRiver to play from memory and do not use gapless setting. IIRC, i set 10 seconds gap netween tracks. The stutters usually happened when it changed album .  I only faced this problem with DSD files. 

 

However, you may still face problem occasionally die to other users hogging the network. Eventaully, i moved all the files to local and external drive to the music room pc. 

 

Tty JRiver forum.

I think there is some Windows 10 memory leak issues with running a DLNA server. I just need to restart the computer and everything is fine. All files up to DSD 128 sent to Pro iDSD unchanged.
