Most of my media is in an HTPC connected to my HT processor via HDMI. I have been using Kodi for playback of both stereo music and movies but I'll now be playing stereo via a preamp (Rotel RC1570) integrated into my HT setup through HT bypass. I need to get a new media server software and connect HTPC to preamp via USB and dedicate kodi to movies through HDMI.

I would like to try squeezebox media server. What plug ins do I need and how do I set it up to use the dac in my preamp? What alothrr intuitive media player softwares do you suggest. It needs to be able to be controlled remotely via an app.

I'll appreciate your advice
