All my 16 *and* 24 bit files are in the AIFF format
All my stereo DSD are in dsf

What Input and output settings for transcoding do I put into stream.transcode to make this work?

Thanks

If you are using BubbleUPnP Server (not the same as the BubbleUPnP control point), you don't need any transcoding settings in MinimStreamer. The transcoding to LPCM 16/44.1 will be done by BubbleUPnP Server.

Not sure about Bubble UPNP transcoding, but it is very easy to set up transcoding in Minimserver. I am using Bubble UPNP to play transcoded 24 bit files via my Sonos.

You asked about settings - excuse me if I'm teaching grandmother to suck eggs here, but ... You need Minimserver, Minimstreamer and Minimwatch installed.

Right click on the Minimwatch icon and select 'Properties'
Then select the 'System' tab
The bottom window of this tab is called stream.transcode
Type: FLAC:wav16
Hit 'Apply'
Rescan the music library

If you want to transcode other filetypes, then use the same format, separating each bit with commas. For example, I have:

FLAC:wav16, AAC:wav16, mp3:wav16

Hope that is of some help.
