I've been using minim server for a solid year+ now, streaming from my synology NAS to my Linn ADS1 without a hiccup. I've installed minim streamer and tried it, but thought the SQ somewhat worse than native streaming.

I am however contemplating measuring the response of my room and correcting for it with filters server side. Is this possible, do I apply them in minim streamer or someplace else?

Ideally I'd want my music library untouched, but real time transcoded with a corrective filter in place. My NAS is a dual core Atom, (DS412+) so I guess it should be able to do the necessary fourier transforms etc.

Simon and others, do you have an idea if this is possible? Any plugins that do this? please point me in the direction, thanks

The first step is to find out why MinimStreamer transcoding without a plug-in sounds worse than native streaming. What type of files are you using (FLAC/ALAC/MP3/etc.) and what is the resolution of these files? What transcoding settings did you apply in MinimStreamer?

MinimStreamer doesn't support EQ plug-ins at the moment. Adding support for such plug-ins developed by third parties is a possible future enhancement. I would be interested in having a discussion with anyone who is interested in developing such a plug-in.
