a sorta hub member how bout that? I am operating my network in bridge mode from my roommates network so the accessing the hub and vice versa isn't possible. Also my roommates router is a serious POS and doesn't even have advanced features so I am unable to share or sample. But I like multichannel music and have figured it out despite it's best efforts to keep me from all of it's channels. You know flacs are extremely flexible in terms of dlna support you are absolutely correct. depending on your os PS3 media server and Playback are both excellent in terms of providing not only MC PCM support but dts flac support as well. It is aslso adept at handling your wavs too no matter their idiosyncrasies as well...like dts encoding or PCM encoding of more than 2 channels. Flac seems to win out on the oppo tho. Have yet to have problems if the DLNA supports native streaming.

So since the Oppo doesn't support AOB's then that rules out the idea
of AOB streaming. Not a bad thing actually, since I realize that there
are many options that I am sorting through in order to figure out how
best to organize and play material. Knowing that the Oppo plays iso's
on attached storage might help me figure things out. But it seems that
Flac is really the most flexible file type - it can be streamed
easily, can hold multichannel and hi res media, and it doesn't take up
tons of storage.
So is the idea of keeping a "complete" Flac collection (ALL of my
audio, both hi res/multichannel and stereo CD audio) a good one? If
so, I guess I will be keeping multiple file types of the same album -
I want the iso's for backup/disc burning and the flacs for streaming/
playback. Or perhaps once I burn the DVD-A disc I can keep this as my
backup, have the flac for playback, and in theory I wouldn't need the
iso anymore...some food for thought.
I believe a 4-bay NAS device is next on my list.
