I don't believe it's possible to share a stream with another zone.

Troubleshooting questions:
Does streaming work with your Audacity zone alone, unlinked to the Acourate Convolver zone?
Does the linked zone scheme work for local music sources (not streamed)?
What do you see in "Playing Now > Overview" when monitoring both zones on the server?
Is Windows Defender Firewall set to allow all local TCP and UDP ports for MC?
How are the zones communicating with the server - DLNA over Wi-Fi, ethernet, ... - are they individually reliable?

Correct to some extent...
Linking zones and playing local files to a networked Chromecast renderer works fine (Wi-Fi DLNA via BubbleUPnP Server; I do not have a networked direct DLNA renderer).
I can also play AAC radio streams to both the Player and the networked Chromecast renderer simultaneously and indefinitely (so far) while not linked. The Player is clearly using MC Audio. The networked renderer says it is not using the MC audio engine, but that may be due to my Chromecast/BubbleUPnP setup.
If I link the Player and Chromecast renderer, they can play together, but only for at most a few minutes before the Player stops. It can be restarted with its Play button, but the setup just does not keep on playing reliably.
Note I have not tested with two remote renderers, but I'd say it is worth a try.
--> So a workaround for you might be to run your renderers unlinked, but playing the same internet AAC channel, started at approximately the same time. That should allow recording as you desire, just without perfect simultaneity and no guarantees until proven through experience. The server's Playing Now > Overview window is really handy for keeping track of what is going on and controlling playback.
Maybe JRiver could look into the link issue.

It even doesn't matter if windows defender firewall is on or completely switched off[/color]How are the zones communicating with the server - DLNA over Wi-Fi, ethernet, ... - are they individually reliable?I use a single computer = the player and the server are the same machine. For jriver, I use only a single computer. Each zone is individually reliable.[/color]There must be a misunderstanding somehow:I never said I am playing something over the network to a different computer (from the server to the clients) The only network which is used is the connection to the Internet from my JRiver computer being the player. For JRiver there is no client/server network installed - just my PCThere must be a change however, as for years this kind of zone linking worked without problems. I have recorded hundreds of radio concerts, while listening live this way for years... But may be I was just lucky with the streams I used - mostly classical music from the public German Broadcasters ARD...
So I have to find another way to record Radio streams from now on...

I just assumed there were networked renderers involved using either Wi-Fi or ethernet because of the different rooms, but not necessarily separate clients. It sounds like everything is hard wired to your single PC (?). A little more detail about your actual hardware and wiring might help JRiver figure out what is going on.
I would say it's worth trying unlinked as described above, though it's a bit more hassle than you are accustomed to.
Need to get some sleep now...
