I'm pretty sure that most offerings will work with any DLNA compliant media server of which windows media player is one of many...so just google "DNLA Mac" and you'll get going in the right direction.
A/V Receivers with Ethernet Connection Question
I have noticed that many of the higher end A/V receivers these days offer ethernet connections to a home network that allow for access to internet radio, updates, and music files and photos on a PC. Sounds kind of cool and I am considering this for a second system in our living room especially if I can gain access to all my music files on my computer.
My question is I own an Apple imac and use itunes with my CD library saved as Apple Lossless files. When I read the small print with these receivers (I've looked at Denon, Yamaha, Pioneer Elite) they state that you can only access PC's with a Windows media player and WAV, MP3 or ACC files. Does anybody know if there are any decent A/V receivers out there that would allow access to to my itunes library with Apple Lossless files on a mac? Or am I not fully understanding the capabilities of the receivers I mentioned above? I sent an e-mail to Denon asking the same question but have yet to hear a reply.
Thanks
