BBC R3 Lossless Stream

[Alandbush]

Not sure how relevant this is to the debate but it is an observation.

As reported earlier, I can play the dash/flac stream to an Auralic Aries and Oppo BDP-103 BUT only if I apply no transcoding via Minimstreamer.
Adding transcoding (eg. flac:wav) results in both devices 'buffering'. The Oppo eventually times out but not the Aries. (nb - transcoding of local flac files works fine)

Is the Linn player, perhaps, having trouble in a similar way?
