minimserver file type output on Melco N1a without minimstreamer installed

[musiclover]

I just installed minimum server on my Melco N1A, the installation was successful as I can see minimserver on my control app Mconnect and have been able to switch off Twonky via N1A front panel.

The N1A is connected to my Oppo 105D via Ethernet which I am using as a DAC/network player. My question is I am able to play my library as is which consist of both Flac 44.1 – 192K and DSD128 - 256 files and I have not installed the minimstreamer add-on.
In this case is the input file type and resolution now being output by the N1A i.e. Flac or DSD unchanged from the input file type resolution if not what is being outputted by the N1A?
Dependent upon the question above is minimstreamer installed required or was it installed with minimserver version 0.8.5.4 ?

I have installed minimwatch on a PC on my network but it does appear to open when doubled clicked however in shows up in control panel as installed. How do I get minimwatch to access the melco as I tried using the N1A IP address:9700 in my browsers which didn’t work?
