    Denon 4300 accessing Qnap music genre

    {sigh}... then why offer the feature if it isn't fully functional? I know rhetorical question. In general I'm happy with the new Denon. Least satisfied with how the sound balancing came out. I found with the Pioneer it was better to just use the default setting... I may do the same here...

    Denon 4300 accessing Qnap music genre

    Denon sees the server, but won't list specific folders, artists, genres. If I go into folders, all songs, I see an alphabetical listing of songs, and they play. Plex recognizes genres on the same qnap as being correct. Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere?

    Pioneer sc65 died?

    I really wanted the 6300... but even in my head, couldn't justify the cost over the 4300... which I ordered. Wife's happy, I'm happy... life is good :) Thank you everybody!

    Pioneer sc65 died?

    I'm guessing so, as I get a green screen... sound still works. It's not the tv, it works fine connected through the same HDMI cable directly to tivo. Switched the HDMI cable to the other output, same issue. DVD and computer HDMI input, same issue. Open to any other new brand suggestions...

    Are onboard graphic and audio acceptable

    Struggling a little bit with Audio. Saw a couple of other posts I need to check out. Currently have both HDMI and Opt wired to receiver, as sometimes one will work and the other one won't. So, with this board ASRock Z97E-ITX LGA1150 Intel mITX Motherboard Do I need an add on card? What...

    BD file compression with Handbrake

    I'm struggling with handbrake audio, WIN7, media player, receiver interface. By the time it gets to the receiver, its only seeing 2ch sound. Ripping regular DVD's with DvdFab no problem.

    Mirror Galaxy S4 on Pioneer SC65

    iPhone link worked great. All documentation indicated without a BT receiver attached to the receiver, it wouldn't work with S4. One night, bored and listening to music on the phone, I was looking through all the phone settings and came across "mirror". Sooo, I turned it on, and surprise of...

    Media player frustrations :(

    only have one wire at that location, but I do have a simple router collecting dust. IRC, that device is only G. Doesn't matter if I've ripped it, or it's been DL, seem to have the same issues. Also, with the D-Link (2nd unit), didn't matter if it was wireless or wired, still had issues.

    Media player frustrations :(

    Do ALL media players get A - V disconnected? I'm on my third unit, and it frustrates the snot out of me. Brand new KDLinks HD700 and I'm watching a movie that ripped awhile ago, and where I didn't hear it in previous versions of the film, kept hearing irritating pops and the audio became...

    New Pioneer SC-65

    IRC it was 1,059.99 What ever Amazon was showing as the price, they matched it. Can you think of a better word to describe the issue? To the best of my hearing ability, I set the perceived volume level of the two receivers to be the same before I started evaluating how they sounded...

    Yamaha Aventage vs '73 series

    I compared the 2020 to Pioneer SC-63 and bought the SC-65 (demo unit wasn't hooked up) I thought the 2020 had a slightly warmer sound, but the SC-63 had much better separation. So far, I'm enjoying the 65, but I was coming from a 12 yo Sony :)

    New Pioneer SC-65

    It automatically went to stereo when it pulled music off my server. Need to figure out how to make the harmony remote access that source :( I prefer music to be two channel, unless it's DTS encoded. Wii, was installer error :( My rack is bit tight and the receiver is at max wt capacity for...

    New Pioneer SC-65

    Got it installed... might have to unfortunately read the manual to get the Wii working :( Harmony remote is mostly working, volume +/- isn't for some stupid reason, whole system starts up a bit slower than I'm used to. Remote usually needs a "help" to prompt one or more components into...

    New Pioneer SC-65

    We don't make big purchases without at least talking to each other. She wanted to spend a bit less money, I was kinda at the 1k to 1.2k thinking... Best buy saying they would match amazon was golden ;)

    New Pioneer SC-65

    Is on it's way. Wandered into best buy while SWMBO went into big lots :) Looked at the rack of all these really good looking receivers and started to have a panic attack. Called up my fav forum that I haven't visited in way too long, and saw the yamaha 2020 review, and asked to listen to...

    DNLA and WHS 2011

    Maybe I need a stainless steel sync? LOL the whole upgrade to WHS 2011 has been a costly exercise... mainly because I lost an incredible amount of data, due to user error :( Been sitting on the fence of V1 - 2011, finally decided today to go to 2011. Not quite sure what I'm going to do...

    DNLA and WHS 2011

    Yep, finally upgrading to the modern world :) New build, long story, but I initially rejected installing WHS 2011 instead of V1... but warming up to the idea of DNLA. Are there any reasonably priced ($1k-ish) receivers that will stream video from WHS 2011? I have a D-Link media player that...
