Try with the latest beta: https://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewt ... 54426&sd=d it has a fix for metadata lookup that may solve your problem.

It may be that the NAS has to spin up the discs, or that the connection to the NAS is really slow. Try right click, Play Now and just wait till song starts. Does that start the song when done once?
