I suspect there is some misunderstanding here.

If BubbleUPnP is doing FFmpeg transcoding of a stream that is provided by MinimServer, BubbleUPnP must be giving the Ropieee a URL that points to BubbleUPnP rather than a URL that points to MinimServer. If the Ropieee is reading the stream directly from MinimServer, it would not be possible for BubbleUPnP to perform FFmpeg transcoding on the stream.
