Need help!

AVR: Yamaha RXV-683

Router: TP Link Archer C-20 with USB input.

I have attached USB pen drive to the routers USB port. I can access media files wirelessly on mac by connecting to the server.

I can see that USB server as a NAS is enabled and seen on the 'MusicCast' app. pl. see the screen shot. But when I try to access USB music files. 'Access Denied' message is displayed.

I have enabled all server related setting in TPlinks USB settings page.

Any help in this respect is appreciated.

Note: NAS servers on the mac are accessed fine by the Yamaha RXV-683.

Problem solved.

Pl. ref. screenshot. You need to create separate folder in the USB and put your media in that and enable it.

Router+USB pendrive or USB HDD makes cheapest NAS where you can keep all your media to stream directly to the AVR.

Other advantage is Flac and DSD files can be streamed and decoded directly in the AVR.

All is well. Flac files are playing wirelessly on my yamaha AVR.

But I'm facing weird problem. Songs play only half the total play time, after that next song starts from the album but that also play half.

Experts pl. suggest solution to this problem.
