A minor victory.
Just remembered that my NAS has a music app, and it allows me to Chromecast. Means I can send files saved on my NAS to my amp. The Chromecast audio puck has been in my system for ages, but I’ve never really used it.
It’s far from perfect - the UI is clunky, I’d sorts album tracks alphabetically by default, you have to reconnect to the cast each time you change an album. It’s also not gapless, and I’m with Darko on this!
As a stopgap it’s fine, but I definitely want a better solution to allow me to use my digital files to the full.
