This release adds support for transcoding FLAC files to WAV. Read all about it here!

Hi Simon,

many thanks for the transcoding support, this is very useful for me for reasons of compatibility with my Sony home theater system. As you may remember, I use BubbleUPnP Server to proxy MinimServer as it was discussed here.

The transcoding from MinimServer works great. Now I can stream FLAC in high quality directly to the Sony device without needing BubbleUPnP Server to transcode it to mp3 first. There are two things I noticed:

1) Seeking does not work when MinimServer transcoding is activated

2) I was quite surprised to see that the Sony device will play MinimServer transcoded FLAC files directly without needing proxying from BubbleUPnP Server, but it still wont play mp3 files from regular MinimServer.

Best regards,
winxi
