What about virtual hosts? If the server opens multiple ports and offers multiple upnp servers, each server could be configured with another transcoding output. The user could chose the right upnp server for the renderer he wants to play music on.

Another thing to mention: the synology media server can be configured with different profiles for each client: The control point can be configured to get high resolution cover art delivered. And the renderer can be configured e.g. as generic renderer that only does understand mp3 or wav, even if it normally supports flac and ogg. For these types the server can transcode to wav automatically. So maybe there is a way for the server to decide which formats to deliver. I think it is bounded to the ip address.
