transcoding only for selected devices

The other option is to specify multiple transcode targets (for example, flac:wav/L16 or flac:-/wav/L16). This presents a choice of streams to the control point and enables the control point to select a stream based on the renderer capabilities.

Sorry to drag up an old thread, but this piqued my interest...

I've been happily using a Naim NDX for the last while which has native DSD64 support and recently added a Mu-so to the mix, which does not. To get around the incompatibilty, I added "dsf:wav24;88" to my stream.transcode option which (obviously) forces the NDX to 24/88.2 too.

Is it possible to do the same sort of thing in this scenario, where the NDX would play DSD64 natively, and the Mu-so 24/88.2?

If so, what would I need to enter into stream.transcode? My current settings are: "flac:wav, dsf:wav24;88"

That said, my cloth ears can't tell the difference between DSD64 and 24/88.2 anyway - it's the principle of the matter...
