Hi,
I have Minimserver and streamer running on ubuntu server on a pi. I wondered if it was possible to only transcode particular streams with minimstreamer. I am transcoding AAC (BBC HLS) to mp3 320 (aac:mp3;320k) to enable it to run in a pc game interface that only reads mp3. I also have a rasberry pi running volumio and an AV receiver which I control as upnp renderers using Bubbleupnp. Whilst I can always use the + sign to stream the BBC Dash and HLS url's direct to these hifi separates I wondered if I would be able to leave the minimserver streams as AAC for these whilst transcoding stream copies just for the game. I have made a separate m3u file with copies of the streams I would like to transcode for the game. However the setting in the minimstreamer properties tab (aac:mp3;320k) seems to be a global one for any AAC stream played from any playlist. I currently use the BBC 128 mp3 streams directly in game but these are soon to stop and I will need to use minimstreamer, hence the query. (Thanks BBC)
Regards
Mike
