I think I misunderstood your earlier comment. MinimServer already transcodes on the NAS, which removes CPU load from the player. I thought you were suggesting that this transcoding should be moved to another device to remove CPU load from the NAS. My apologies for the misunderstanding.

Sorry, I should've expressed myself more clear.

Just to clarify my point about the upsampling. Linn DS upsamples using its own CPU, my idea is to use the NAS CPU for upsampling.
