Many thanks for the responses to my earlier questions!

One further question - or more like looking for tips. I have some live material I've recorded at uncompressed 96/24. If I store the files on my NAS source (actually a USB drive attached to a Mac Mini on my home network), I can't play them without serious sound break-up: it would seem that even though everything is connected over hard-wired Ethernet, either the file isn't being streamed to Moode on the Raspberry Pi fast enough, or the buffer on Moode isn't correctly sized. I've tried all sorts of buffer sizes on Moode, from very small to very large, with some improvements here and there, but I still get break-up.

Perhaps there are options I can use when defining the NAS source on Moode that would allow me to tune how the files are sent to the Raspberry Pi over TCP - eg packet size etc? Any suggestions / advice welcome.

Placing the files on a local USB drive on the Pi solves the problem, so it's not entirely critical. 44/16 sources (both uncompressed and Apple Lossless) stream just fine from the Mac by the way, so it's clearly an issue with the sheer rate of streaming that's required with 96/24 files that's the issue.

Cheers
