QNAP JRiver for a complete novice
sls:
I am not very computer-literate, so bear with me.
I have a PS Audio DAC Mk2 without a bridge and a TS451 QNAP. I have a SOTM bridge, which does the DNLA thing and outputs by usb to the DAC.
I use a macbook pro and have used JRiver for mac. I rather like it.
So I went into HybridDesktop Station and downloaded and installed JRiver. I assumed it would put an icon on the QTS from page. No such luck.
How do I access JRiver on the QNAP? Can I do it from my macbook?
Do I have to have the QNAP plugged into a a screen with an HDMI cable?
I just have no idea.
Many thanks

Hello, in fact you need to plug your QNAP to a monitor/TV through HDMI. When done :
>> you can launch JRiver (you need a linux or Master Licence) and setup the software
>> you can manage the setup through QRemote on iPhone/iPad or only pluging a keyboard/mouse to the USB of the QNAP.
It works well at home. My only issue is that the QNAP was not close to a HDMI monitor so I bought a DVDO HDMI transmitter (wireless) and no no issue to make evrything working fine.
What is clear is neither from qnap and JRiver there is a strong support on this topic.
Hope it helps.

Hello,
Do you also need to connect a keyboard to the NAS?
If so, how do you do that remotely?
