I just gave a longer test....an hour of DSD playback through HDMI.....and sure enough I had a long dropout.....maybe 10 seconds. 

I haven't tried overclocking but I can easily switch to a USB DAC and try again.   

PS:  Has anyone tried Windows 10 WOR on a Raspi 4 with JRiver?  Does it work?

Wheaten:
Haven't tried it, as far as I am aware:
ethernet, Wifi and Bluetooth will not work.
It performs the same like an atom processor, So I doubt it will be suitable to run JRiver in a decent matter.

I believe you can put a splitter on USB-C ( https://youtu.be/h0_kEV-gdtI ) and get around some of that...or use a Raspi 3.   I was curious - not as to actually using it but from a geeky perspective.

Wheaten:
Then just try it and let me know  ;D

In my opinion, it is best to go with the standard topology and separate the server and the endpoint.  The server does all the heavy lifting (conversion, upsampling, etc.) and the endpoint's only job is to receive data and send the output to the DAC.

I use my gamer's PC as an MC server, and a cheap used Atom CPU fanless Windows 10 pc (Minix brand) as my endpoint.  It works like a charm.  Raspberry Pi should be the same.
