This is a common user request and I wish there were a better solution. The main issue is that the UPnP protocol requires the server to specify the audio format and resolution of the stream without knowing what renderer will be used to play the stream. The server can offer multiple alternative streams with different audio formats and resolutions and MinimServer/MinimStreamer fully supports this. The UPnP protocol allows the control point to select one of these alternative streams based on the capabilties advertised by the renderer but unfortunately most control points do not provide support for this.

Hi Simon,
I am using a QNAP TVS-463 NAS and from what I can read it should support what they call Containers.
From QNAP:
"QNAP Container Station exclusively integrates LXC (Linux Container) and Docker® lightweight virtualization technologies, allowing you to operate multiple isolated Linux® systems on a QNAP NAS as well as download thousands of apps from all over the world."

Do you have a Docker image for MinimServer?
