You need to do the following:

1) Download ffmpeg for Mac from this site
2) Copy the ffmpeg executable to your home directory
3) Set the stream.converter property to /Users/your-user-name/ffmpeg

After you have done this, you will be able to set the stream.transcode property to aac:L16.

That has worked, many thanks. This setting solved the problem mentioned earlier of two Avox radios (Color, TMA1) not being able to play a BBC stream the first time. First tests have shown that playing now starts immediately.
