After evaluating a lot of different software for purpose of high quality listening and sharing media over LAN and WAN I become a happy user of JRiver Media Center. I've tried XBMC, Plex, HQ Player, Tonido, Subsonic, OwnCloud, Serviio. And while some of them are better in single aspects then MC none can provide you with complete and high quality experience.
What I lack is the ability to quickly switch between different outputs and change the type of processing.
From my PC I output:
- multichannel sound to AVR with JRSS and 5.1 convolution filters via HDMI
- stereo sound headphone amp connected to external USB DAC with MC upsampling and different convolution filters
Switching from one to the other requires fiddling with lot of options. What I dream off is functionality similar to typical AVR receiver. When I change inputs on AVR receiver I got automatic switch for different processing, source attenuation, etc.. It would be great if I could create several "profiles" within MC which would allow to quickly switch output and all settings in DSP Studio.
What do you think about that? Or maybe there is already a feature in MC that would simplify for me switching from AVR to headphones?
