Can I store my iTunes library on the time capsule and airplay to my reciever. I would expect it to being an apple product. Any help?

1- You Can Store The iTunes Library To It, But You Have To Open The Data Folder Every Time U Open Your Mac. 2- I Couldn't Find A Way To Stream From It.

The answer you were previously given is not correct.You can set up a separate folder for iTunes if you so desire.

I have the same question as I would like to send one to my parents in Europe. Does anyone know the answer? Also, Can you play the same music through airplay on more that one unit simultaneously? (If I had one in different rooms, would they all play the same thing I launch ?)

Did some testing back and forth between the Thunderbolt station and my computer... while the headphones worked fine, the playback / volume in iTunes cannot be controlled through the station. I had to do the test twice on the station because I almost never use headphones with my computer so I wanted to confirm the results.

I'm not. It works well. They recently updated the firmware on all of the units, as well as the software for the desktop application on Macintosh. My app version is 4.0.18.6104. On my Bose SoundTouch 20 it is 4.0.14.14122. My iTunes library is in the standard location. The latest update includes streaming from some NAS devices, so you can stream music without the computer being on. So I guess I'd try to make sure everything is up to date first.

I am not conversant with the apple time capsule but anything that is made to connect to ethernet through a cable (not USB) can be used. This device connects to the wireless network and presents itself as a wired port (actually 4) you can connect any device that can connect to a ethernet network. For example an old desktop or whatever. I have been using it without any problem for my Logitech Revue which has a bad wifi but has also a port for wired connection.

What you would most likely do is use the Synology NAS as your media repository, then use the DS Video app on your iDevice. The DS Video app would connect to the AppleTV via AirPlay. The same could be said for the DS Audio app and AirPlay. Go for it! Just make sure you backup your files since this is a single drive unit.

I second the motion towards Rockbox. I just got an 80gb 5.5 on ebay specifically to put Rockbox on it, and it's fantastic. If anyone out there has a 5.5 and you're at all annoyed by iTunes, and/or by its limitations on file formats supported, and the fact that it doesn't actually let you transfer your own files onto the player, you should seriously consider checking out Rockbox and upgrading your player to a digital powerhouse. Even after you've put Rockbox on, you can still boot into the original Apple firmware rather easily, if you're concerned about that.

I have been using an iPad and iPhone (each with the AV controller app) also, you do have to use the app at least for apple devices as the receiver is airplay compliant, so I can just open up the ipod and shunt the music straight to the receiver as it is on the network.

Sorry,I'm not good at English but I'll try my best to answer your questions.Please explain what "Are they sorted"means to me.There were not any problems with AirPlay when I used it but you shouldupgrad the software.

You can stream to multiple AirPlay devices from iTunes on OS/X - but not on iPad/iPhone. You can even set different relative volume levels for each of the multiple devices.

I've personally never used it with itunes but i believe it will work. Mine is used with WMP. Sorry I don't know more.

Not out of the box...the backup features the Time Capsule uses are built into the Mac OS X software. This link might help explain it better than I could:https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5229376

Yes, it's working fine for me. Google "spotify OSX airplay" and you will get to the Spotify support page detailing how to do it

I have 2receivers set up and I can play iTunes from a laptop to one or to both at the same time this works well if that is what you are trying to do.

I think itunes only works on apple products. But am not sure. I can play all my music files on it.It's pretty much like a laptop PC. Hope this helps.
