Meridian Unplugged - Powered by MrTechGuy.co.uk Forums Discussion Meridian - Streaming Possible QNAP 4.2.x solution

I might have a solution for QNAP problems.

In my case, it works both with TS-569Pro and TVS-671 4.2.2 (20161102), core on C15 or MD600 - not on QNAP.

1. Temporary solution or testing
Logon to QNAP
Go to App Center
Stop ALL apps
Start Sooloos app (wait a minute or so for it to complete)
Start other apps
Reboot endpoints

Caveat : this needs to be done after every QNAP reboot ot Sooloos update

2. Permanent solution - perform at your own risk
Try above temporary solution. STOP if it doesn't work.
If you are not familiar with Linux/Unix, get someone to help or stick to temporary solution.

SSH/Telnet to QNAP
CD /etc/config
cp qpkg.conf qpkg.conf-save (we're making a copy before the change - just in case)
Edit (vi) the qpkg.conf and move the Sooloos section to the very top
Sooloos section starts with [Sooloos] and ends at [...nextapp...] (or end-of-file)
Reboot QNAP
Reboot endpoints

Caveat 1 : QNAP needs to be rebooted every time there is a Sooloos update
Caveat 2 : If Twonky is running on the QNAP, move its config at the bottom of the config file.

Hope this works for most of you.
When in doubt, stick to temporary solution. It is non-intrusive and repeatable.

Good luck.
