Anyway, i am inclined to keep ripping through uncompressed WAV - as i got lots of space.
Thought there were sime settings in Minimserver which was causing this.
All good.

It is not a matter of space, but of Metadata. FLAC is more elaborate, complete and flexible when it comes to metadata and MinimServer takes full use of that. With WAV and AIFF, metadata literally was an afterthought. FLAC was designed with streaming and metadata in mind.
