let me explain what I mean...
I have a lot of ape (lossless) audio files which my stream magic does not support. I can convert them of course but maybe minimstreamer can transcode the files to pcm or flac. Is that doable or would you consider it?
If not, can you elaborate on that?

thanks and cheers,
Stefan

I don't have any plans to add support for ape lossless files to either MinimServer or MinimStreamer. To play these files using MinimServer or to transcode them using MinimStreamer, you would need to use an external converter such as dBpoweramp to convert these files into a supported format. You can find a list of supported formats in this section.

I can imagine it works on a windows box but is this possible on a (Netgear) NAS? With external software (dBpoweramp) conversion?

cheers,
Stefan
