The MinimStreamer User Guide indicates that, as transcoding is done in memory, this is likely to be a network issue.

Yup. I was making the point that the BDP-1 doesn't aggressively buffer network traffic, so when you transcode 192/24 files into WAV, the audio files get large and a 100 Mbps ethernet port struggles to keep up.
