stream.transcode: flac:wav;,wav:wav24

The semicolon after flac:wav forces the use of FFmpeg for transcoding instead of using MinimStreamer's internal converter.

Suggest adding the above to the documentation?

You mean this documentation?


Convolution Filtering section

To use convolution filtering, the stream.transcode property must be set to a value that transcodes the audio file or network stream using FFmpeg as the stream converter. See the Transcoding section for details of how to do this.

Transcoding section

Input type

Flac
FLAC files. Valid for local files served by MinimServer (.flac) only. The output type must be L16, L24, wav, wav24 or wav16. By default, a stream converter program is not required. If you want MinimStreamer to perform transcoding using a stream converter program, you can specify this by adding a semicolon after the output type.


Output type

wav
PCM audio encoded in WAV format, preserving the original sample bit depth. Valid for local files and network streams. If the input type isn't flac or if the output type is followed by a semicolon, a stream converter program is required.
If the input type is dsf, the output sample bit depth is 32 by default. You can override this default value by specifying wav16 or wav24 for the output type.

Thank you. I was suggesting adding something to the Convolution section because it is not obvious when reading there.
