Day Radebaugh:
Downloaded MC 27.  Imported my NAS music library, was able to easily play selections on my Macbook.  This worked well.  However,

1. Found this software unstable.  It would freeze up, and I had to use Macbook's Force Quit Applications to kill it.  Multiple times.

2. Sent music to my Ayre QX-5 using Send To command, but was unable to mute or even turn down the sound on my Macbook.

Suggestions please?

Thanks

JimH:
Don't kill it. Wait.

Day Radebaugh:
Making progress.  However, I could use some help sorting out a) which output gets the sound and b) controlling sound level.  I have something playing to my Macbook, and something else to my DAC, an Ayre QX-5. 

What is the best way of sending sound to the DAC and turning off the sound on my Macbook?  The Player seems to take over the sound on my Macbook.  Second, I will have 3 links in the final chain when I'm playing to the DAC.  First is the Macbook, second is the DAC (with its own volume control) and third is a preamp, also with its own volume control.

If there are obvious answers, pls let me know.  In any case, I'm going to study up on https://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Getting_Started

Thanks for the help.

JimH:
On the wiki read about Media Network and Zones.  Your DAC is a DLNA zone.

Day Radebaugh:
Thank you for the help.
