I have an older Denon receiver that can not play alac and my Oppo 203 can not cope with alac transcodings but all was working fine with this setting. Regardless the device it's always transcoding.

What exactly is happening when you try play music with this stream.transcode setting?

Quote:It seems it does not see that the renderer is capable of playing alac so it transcodes on my oppo and it's not transcoding on my denon (the opposite of what I had before)

There is nothing in the logs that shows a crash. After a crash, you need to first stop MinimServer from the QNAP App Center (even though it has already crashed), then copy the minimserver-diag file before you start MinimServer again.
