I make Fidelia, a Mac audiophile player, and I'm about to add proper Lyrion/LMS support. Being upfront: it'll be a paid add-on, but testers get it free and keep it. I'm here because validating this feature will require a wide array of real hardware, far more than we can practically source.

What it does:
- Browse your whole Lyrion/LMS library natively on the Mac — a real album wall, fast search, credits — not a web skin.
- Play bit-perfect: it pulls the original file from the server (never the transcoded stream) and shows the true rate/depth.
- Shows up as a player in your server's device list (SlimProto).
- Plays OUT to a UPnP/OpenHome streamer — one zone, done well.

Why I'm posting: I've proven it against a Lyrion server and renderer, but the streamer world is a zoo. I want it tested on real gear — WiiM, Bluesound, Cambridge, Linn, Naim, Eversolo, Sonore, Vortebox/UltraRendu, piCorePlayer, whatever you run.

What I need from you: run it on your setup and tell me your server version + streamer model. When something's wrong there's a "Test Connection" button that spits out a plain-language diagnostic you can copy straight into a reply — that will tell us what we need to know.

What you get: a promo code, free, yours to keep (it'll be $49.99 at launch). Needs a Mac and Fidelia.

I'm keeping the first round small and picking for hardware variety, so comment or DM with what you're running. Honest heads-up: output to streamers is the newest piece and the main thing I want to prove on real devices — expect a rough edge or two, and I'll turn fixes around quickly.
 
So we'd need to pay for the base app to start?
If you're interested and wouldn't mind writing us at [email protected] with details of your setup and how Fidelia might fit into it, we can talk about arrangements.
