Title: streaming radio via dac
Post by: rhkrhk on July 07, 2017, 01:14:08 pm

Trying to get streaming radio from computer to main stereo.
Using W7 & most recent MC22.
Setup: computer & PSAudio Direct Stream DAC (current firmware)  connected via router.

MC has two different outputs:
USB to external NAD dac and desktop speakers 
PSAudio Direct Stream bridge 1 via network cable to router, balanced output to preamp and main stereo system

Material on external hard drives play properly through either system.

I tried:
Playing now/ PSAudio DAC
Audio/connected media/right click/ add website
Popup box “Media options” comes up.  I add “wqxr.org”

I go back to connected media and click on wqxr.org - but all I get is a google search box.  When I enter wqxr.org n the google box, then click on the link -  music plays through the desktop speakers only and not thru the PSAudio.  I tried the same process with wshu.org, same result.

How do I get MC to play streaming radio through the PSAudio?

Thanks
Roger Kaye

wqxr.org is a web page not an audio stream so it cant be "played".

You need to find an audio stream such as http://stream-uk1.radioparadise.com/aac-320 (http://stream-uk1.radioparadise.com/aac-320)

Try that and see what happens....
