I assume you have tried all the things mentioned in https://music-assistant.io/player-support/dlna/

Yes.. although I dont have an option for 'QUEUE FLOW MODE' in the player settings, be that individual players or groups. I cant find it anywhere?

I've tried all three available HTML profiles for sending audio (chunked, no content length and forced content length) and all have the same issue.

Its very strange as it works perfectly for about 30 mins then it just stops without any errors in the logs.

I'll try disable 'Enfore (lossy) mp3 stream' and see if that has any affect.

Any advice or recommendations highly appreciated

Thanks

I didnt realise my speakers supported Airplay and they work great so I'll use that instead of DLNA

Thanks
