I installed the F19-R8 Quad image, then went to wandboard:8081 in order to configure the Samba Workgroup (under System) and to set up a static ip address for the Wandboard (under Ethernet Interface Configuration). All worked perfectly: thanks Clive. I first updated logitechmediaserver 7.80 to

Thanks for the info. Playback seems much better over ethernet. I did notice some stuttering for a minute or so, but on the whole is glitch free as opposed to constant break ups via WiFi. One of the files I have is DSD64 .dff, this plays OK and CPU goes to about 98%. The other files are .dsf and
