Thank you for this - though I must admit I have no idea how to mount the shared folder!

The NAS on which the second instance of Minim is installed is a Synology DS1515+.

Later:

I found out that I do the mount using File Station on the Synology, but again, I cannot find the correct syntax. I initially used the QNAP name "MusicNAS", and when this did not work used the ip, 192.168.1.x, but this did not work either - I get a messgae saying "failed to find remote folder", whatever share syntax i use.

Help!!

Are you following instructions the same as these - mount remote volume?

Yes, thank you, I found that article - I used the CIFS system for my failed attempts last night. I have had another look at the problem this morning and I am wondering if I should use NFS as both the NAS boxes use Linux?

Would the format look something like this, based on your earlier posts?

\\192.168.0.x\Music\Classical

Yes, that is the sort of thing I have tried, both with and without the volume, also with and without "share" - both before the volume and before the share itself. More or less all permutations, in fact!

Many thanks for your help!
