NEW: ZoneSync 2
bigbwb:
Anyone? I had hoped there was a solution for this.
RoderickGI:
I think if you are using a local DAC and a remote DLNA device, you are using ZoneSync 1. ZoneSync 2 only works between two DLNA devices, as best I understand. This is confirmed by the fact that you have access to adjusting link timing. ZoneSync 2 automatically adjusts timing using DLNA functionality, I believe, while ZoneSync 1 uses the manual adjustment, which always drifts for me.
Have a read of this post to perhaps understand the difference: https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,119139.msg823890.html#msg823890
Perhaps someone else can shed some more light on the subject.

Thank you, that makes sense if so. Bummer though. Hopefully a future revision will allow my scenario to sync up properly.

From what I understand, ZoneSync2 only works to auto sync between MC Instances. While there is a SyncPlay() function as part of the latest UPnP specification, unfortunately not a single mfr has implemented it in their DLNA devices. The Link Timing adjustment should work for the Yami but even if you get it perfectly synced, it will drift out of sync and the next time you play it will be wrong. It's all a PITA to get Whole House Sync Audio going. Your options are:
1) Use MC on all your devices so you can use ZoneSync2
2) Use a 3rd party apps like TuneBlade / Airfoil / BubbleUPnP Server / HiFy that can take the ouput of MC then send a stream to mulitple devices and keep them all in sync. Unfortunately, each of these products support a different set of devices and protocols. Have a search in the forum as there are a few threads on how to set these up.

Thanks for clarification. I will look into the3rd party apps you mentioned! Tuneblade is out, its only for airplay devices etc.. Airfoil might be feasible though!
