    Control Apps and Firmware Upgrades.

    Yes I can do this, but with over 4000 CDs many classical this is a much slower way of doing it. I use Bubble instead of the provided control app. This has the additional advantage of an option allowing folder contents to be arranged by track number as opposed to alphabetically so you can play...

    Control Apps and Firmware Upgrades.

    If I control access via the Unit itself I can see all folders though because of the limited display and the number of CDs I have this takes a long time. Their app doesnt allow that, Bubble does. Therefore its the App?

    Control Apps and Firmware Upgrades.

    Its a simple matter to check on this on the products website but many users may not even be aware of the issues. At one time the manufacturer of my product had to have units returned to the suppliers for upgrade. Surely its not unreasonable to ask a group that reviews consumer products to...

    help needed for streaming virgin

    You'll manually have to assign your laptop and N50 an IP Address say 192.168.1.10 and 192.168.1.11 subnet would be 255.255.255.0 no gateway or DNS. This may or may not work. Failing that get a cheap router and use DHCP to allocate addresses.

    Sorry I should have said that at least WHF could identify the complexity of the process if not the frequency.

    Control Apps and Firmware Upgrades.

    I have been using network audio streamers for at least 6 years and currently have several in operation in my home. While I assiduously read the reviews in What HiFi, I find them limited in many respects because although they faithfully investigate the sound qualities of these units they fail in...

    qobuz

    Just read about the UK launch of qobuz HiRes store. The cost of many HiRes albums is still very much cheaper when downloading from the States (although not all are available due to 'restrictions' imposed by the record companies). Eric Claptons latest is about £7.00 cheaper in HiRes, in fact it...

    Airplay broken on Marantz M-CR603

    I had this problem until I happened to switch off my Laptop and all worked fine. What you must do is check the media settings on all attached PCs and laptops to ensure that the 603 or 7004 device is permitted to access media files, even if that computer has no media files you use. After I did...

    Marantz NA7004 Network problems

    :) Thanks for this - I had a reply from Marantz who suggested it was a router problem - as I use Devolo AV200s and a Linksys WAG160N I think it may be a combination of a variety of factors - however I do know all my other network devices including networked blu ray, Netgear DEE all work fine...

    Marantz NA7004 Network problems

    Has anyone had problems with the NA7004 on a network. Mine simply resets when it gets to displaying radio stations or music servers (my ping test shows it timing out at this stage and then obviously the dreaded reset), it even resets when i try to play from my USB stick. Interestingly the...
