DLNA using BubbleUPnP (Chromecast renderer)

Well, the issue came up for the past two days.
Checked everything, nothing has changed?
Day 3 I opened up JRiver and up pops all the DNLA and I'm listening to music now
Head scratcher

musicmahn:
Well, after a good number of months of playing quite flawless.....I'm getting issues again.  We lost the power one time about a month ago and that's the only "change" that's happened to my setup.  I'm not sure the timing of how long this has been going on though.

Anyway my problems are:
-Sometimes cannot play tracks at all...I get the 5 second countdown and then nothing
-Sometimes after this countdown nothing happens, until another 10 seconds or so later the song starts playing
-Sometimes I get it going and it will play a few tracks only to just stop after a given track
-It feels like sometimes there is added silence to the end of a track before the next one starts (though I am not watching my screen to be sure of it - I will have to check on this to be sure)
-Sometimes I will get it playing and with a flash all of the other tracks in the playing now list disappear - the ones I had already played and the ones that were upcoming

I've tried rebooting my PC, restarting bubbleUPnP

What kills me is that plex works just flawless pulling off of my NAS to the Chromecast Audio. 
I just don't want to use it - JRiver fits all my needs aside from this DLNA issue


Thanks for reading this :)

JimH:
Gizmo and JRemote2 both support Chromecast.  Might be worth trying.

musicmahn:
Neither would work with my PC or windows tablet though :(
Everything looks great and it honed to my navigating preference when it is up and running fine.
Any advice of things to try or look for would be great.
Thanks

musicmahn:
Might there be anyone that can revisit this one?  I'll admit I'm probably terrible with opening ports etc. but somehow have managed to achieve what I've needed in the past.  Maybe if it's spelled out a bit more I could see something I'm missing?

It's strange to me that this is not an all or nothing issue.  If I CAN get music to my receiver in my current state (albeit very very poorly) what is holding it up from working fine??
