Gizmo playback on my Arcam device pauses after each track

Controller? You mean  Gizmo? I use Gizmo as my remote control. I have to hit the "next" button after every track to resolve the problem. I can't see "SetNextAVTransport" option in Gizmo.

graham23:
On my downstairs PC, I just installed JRiver 31. I followed the Audio Setup wiki. I connected my phone/gizmo app to the newly installed jriver, and told it to play through the Arcam. Mp3 files play, but alac files show an error on the Arcam screen "file not recognised - OK to continue".
This rings a bell and I may have experienced this before. I can't find that fix though. I wonder if there is a setting that would cause that error message?

JimH:
When you use DLNA, the server (MC) can convert or not.  You can change it.

No conversion is occurring. But, I noticed that on Mediacentre, the issue seems to be caused by the software not knowing that the track has finished.
What I experienced on my phone Gizmo app, is an error pops up, "error communicating with server", and displays the track progress bar as being at the end of the track
The streamer (Arcam) switches to DLNA Search - it had been displaying the track info of the music being streamed
It appears as though the track has paused, and that's the issue I raised here
But today, I looked at Media Centre (it's upstairs), and noticed that the track appeared to be still playing. The timer counter was incrementing beyond the end of the track.
I guess that's why Gizmo stops playing music, and needs me to skip to the next track manually, IE, it thinks the track is still streaming, so won't progress on its own.

graham23:
Bump. See the above image? The track is 10:30. but MC is still counting at over 10:30. Meanwhile my Arcam network device is sitting in silence. I assume because it thinks the track has a silence at the end? So I need to hit the "next" button, which can't be correct, surely.
I'm at wits end here and would appreciate any help. Yes I have read the getting started tutorials, and looks like I am doing everything right. I don't even mind changing my process to get this working again.
Really simple. I have MC server upstairs. I have Arcam media network player (SA20) in my lounge room. I have gizmo on my Android "all I want" is to be able to turn on Arcam, connect Gizmo to MC server / library, and play TO the Arcam while controlling via Gizmo.
The obstacles, as noted above is that playback gets stuck at the end of every random song (its not every song) and I need to skip to the next track. Also sometimes the track buffers in the middle to playback pauses, plays for 5 seconds, pauses again etc.
Sincere thanks for any help in getting this amazing software working for my really simple set up.
