I am not at all familiar wtih JRiver, but looking into implementing streaming of DSD (DFF) files in my home theatre environment. I would be using a computer, installed in the home theatre rack, along with DAC capable of playing the files in native format.
Currently, I am streaming music through a LINN DS, which accesses music files on a server located in another room in the house. I would like to continue to use this server if possible to implement the DSD playback as described above. It has the capacity to store the amount of music that I will have.
So, the question is, will HQ Player, loaded on a PC located in the home theatre, retrieve the music over my home network from a NETGEAR ReadyNAS NVX (Linux running Fuppes) located somewhere else and play (push) them to the DAC through an USB input?
Thanks.

I don't know what HQ Player is, but where are you envisaging JRiver will fit into this? I don't understand what question you are asking of JRiver. In case it was a typo and you actually meant this:
"So, the question is, will J River, loaded on a PC located in the home theatre, retrieve the music over my home network from a NETGEAR ReadyNAS NVX (Linux running Fuppes) located somewhere else and play (push) them to the DAC through an USB input?"
...the answer is Yes.

My MC (running on a pc dedicated to my home system and living room tv) sees the other pc's on the network and grabs the music (mp3s) and shows them and plays them.
