Thanks for that Simon. I think I understand now.
So control software, like Lumin, Kinsky, Kazoo will tell my streamer, i.e. write on its playlist, not only where a file is on a NAS, but what sort of file it thinks it is. And transcoding has to con it so that the file is treated properly. Cunning....
