this is likely something that needs to be fixed by Denon. do they have a support
forum and are other users reporting the same issue?

"Play-to" network device keeps repeating same song

When I move a group of songs to the play area on the right-hand panel and select the "play-to" drop-down item, my DLNA compatible AV controller appears. When I select it, a new window opens, and the first song on the list begins playing on the AV device. Fine.
The problem is that song just keeps repeating. It doesn't matter whether the "repeat" control is turned on or off. I can click on any song in the list and it happily plays that song - over and over and over :-(
If I select a saved playlist from the DLNA client, it plays just fine and doesn't repeat. Unfortunately, I want to control the device from WMP, not from the panel of the DLNA client.
Help appreciated.

2010-10-15T14:36:28+00:00 are all the files on the local computer on the local hard drive and are they all
the same file format? the reason I ask is info I found at
http://gcoupe.wordpress.com/2009/05/14/fun-with-technology-%e2%80%93-part-iv/
also, what happens if you select an entire ripped ALBUM in Windows Explorer (not
WMP), right click and select Play To?

2010-10-15T16:34:29+00:00 All the files are on the local drive. In the same folder actually. From the same album. Doesn't matter if the files are MP3 or WAV. Doesn't matter if played from WMP or Explorer (thanks for that tip - I had no idea you could do that). I can see all of the songs in the list on the Denon. When the current file completes, the display flashes as it switches to the next song - but the next song is always the song that just played.
It seems communication between the Denon and WMP Network Audio function is faulty right there at the end of play. Any idea?
Thank you for your hep.
