Hi
First time I'm posting here. Very exciting to see the news on the SHD. I have a couple questions below I haven't been able to find answers to from yours or Volumio's website
- Does the SHD work for multiroom streaming from a NAS? I imagine this would require one SHD per room each connected to a router
- Are there any specific requirements on the NAS to use?
- There was an earlier question in this thread on whether the SHD is upgradeable to Dirac 2.0 but I can't see this being confirmed. Can you clarify?
- Do you ship to the United Kingdom?

Many thanks

Thanks for your feedback and glad to hear that you like the SHD.. Here are some answers to your questions:

- Does the SHD work for multiroom streaming from a NAS? I imagine this would require one SHD per room each connected to a router
ANS: You could easily get each of these SHD to get their audio from a single NAS. For the multiroom, there is a step by step here we just found on youtube :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXYbQ8X7Pr8&t=506s In the future, we can work to prep something similar..

- Are there any specific requirements on the NAS to use?
ANS: No specific requirements. Just a NAS.

- There was an earlier question in this thread on whether the SHD is upgradeable to Dirac 2.0 but I can't see this being confirmed. Can you clarify?
ANS:As per our policy, we never advertise a feature until it's ready. You can however see on the topic of Dirac 2.0 that we've repeated over and over how we're working on this.

- Do you ship to the United Kingdom?
ANS: Correct, we indeed do.

Hoping this info helps.

Can the SHD series support multiroom synchronized playback wirelessly with either multiple SHDs or with an SHD and volumio running on a Raspberry Pi? I'm talking about functionality that Sonos/MusicCast/Heos supports.

Thanks

I don't think so. I've certainly never read anyone discussing this as a possibility and there is no way to do this that has ever jumped out at me.
