The simplest and probably best solution is to enable flac:wav or flac:wav24 transcoding for both your Linn DSs and your PS3. If you haven't tried this with a Linn DS, you might be pleasantly surprised at what you are hearing (especially with wav24).

The other option is to specify multiple transcode targets (for example, flac:wav/mp3 or flac:-/wav/mp3). This presents a choice of streams to the control point and enables the control point to select a stream based on the renderer capabilities.

Hi Simon,

Interesting. You seem to propose a combination (flac to MP3 transcoding) that does not work with my set up (unfortunately). When trying to set "flac:wav24/mp3, ....", MinimWatch tells me this is an unsupported transcoding combination 'flac:mp3'.

Am I missing something?
Can I change this somehow?

FYI I'm running MinimServer 0.8.2 update 42, MinimStreamer 0.4.3 and MinimWatch 0.8.2 update 23.

Thanks for your answer.
