How to configure Jriver 19 to Airport Express

I use to work with Itunes and was streaming audio to another room using Apple's Airport Express. Everything worked fine. I started to use Jriver 19 about 6 months ago and now want to use the Airport Express device to stream music in my living room. I have read a ton of threads on the Internet and looked at JRiver help section, which is really useless on that subject.

I have read that I needed to install the DBpoweramp Asset UPnP audio server which should be compatible with JRiver. I have created a living room zone and a Airport Express zone in JRiver which I can both see in the 'Playing Now' menu section. I have downloaded the main Library into the living room zone and no audio playing, what could be the problem?

Thanks Doggiehowser,

I have tought about doing so as a 'B' plan. However, there are some folks that have been able to configure Jriver to operate with Apple's Airport Express. I would like to avoid using 2 music player applications. I just need the recipe from those who were facing the same issue using Jriver 19.

Because it does not support DSD downloads. I have purchased a Benchmark DAC2 HGC to be able to listen to DSD downloads. Little disappointments about poor availability of music DSDs in general.

Thanks Doggiehowser. I have read users successfully using Airfoil with Jriver. Will give it a try in a few days.
