JRiver suddenly stuttering on any file over 96kHz

<< < (2/2)

Thanks DJ,
Somewhat surprisingly, it appears the problem lies with the Bel Canto.  If I leave everything exactly as-is, but output the USB directly to my Chord 2Qute that I use for headphone listening, playback is flawless at any sampling rate, up through DSD, so the MacBook, USB interface, and external hard drive all seem to be good.  Since the Bel Canto is the most expensive piece of equipment in the signal path, this is not good news :-(
I've contacted Bel Canto to see if they can offer suggestions.
Thanks again, DJ and Jim for helping me see that JRiver is not the culprit, which is unfortunate, as the fix would be much cheaper...
Best,
Chris

So, after some back-and-forth with Bel Canto (very helpful people, BTW), I isolated the problem; it seems my Audience Ohno digital cable has "died".  I'm not sure how or why this would happen, but switching to a standard 75ohm cable I had sitting around eliminated the problem and all is now good in audio land :-)
Now I just need to get a decent S/PDIF cable to replace the generic one that now in the system...
Thanks again to all for their help,
Chris
