I obtained an optical cable with the requisite 3.5mm termination and SnakeOil with Jriver works perfectly. I have not messed with many Jriver settings, but I am getting a Direct connection that is at least as good as my Windows 10 Jriver setup.
Yes, I can use the digital SPDIF optical connection and call it good. But, if at all possible I would like to have the HDMI connection also working. If for nothing else, to figure out where the issue is.
While I'm at it, I have a question concerning accessing the JRiver GUI. I have been able, following your instructions, to connect via the VNC viewer. I would, however, like to be able to interact with the JRiver GUI from a monitor directly connected to the computer. For now, all I get is the SnakeOil terminal screen. Is there a command to call up the JRiver GUI?
