If you want to put more time into transcoding features, maybe think about exposing FFmpeg switches for MinimStreamer via the web-based configurator. For example, I would love to be able to invoke SoX with minimum or linear phased filters and forced up-sampling to best match the characteristics of my DAC.

Just a thought...

I would like to support this at some stage. There are some tricky issues of which options can be exposed safely and which options can't be exposed because they would interfere with MinimStreamer's handling of the stream. Also, a user with multiple DACs might want different upsampling options for each DAC, which brings us back to the original question of how to provide different transcoding settings for different renderers.
