I have JRiver running on an old mac mini (2005) and streaming from a Sinology NAS to a DAC. What is the preferred method for connecting to the NAS?

1. Should I do it through the media server on the NAS? This seems to work but with albums that have multiple discs the sort is wrong, both track ones show, then both track twos, etc. I can't seem to change this.

2. Or should I do it through file sharing and have JRiver create a local library based on the files on the NAS, basically bypassing the NAS server? This also seems to work, and without the sorting issue, but JRIver runs pretty slow and needs to rebuild the library often (I am replacing 256khz files with lossless ones).

Thanks.
