As I suspected, uncompressed FLAC files take longer for MinimStreamer to seek than compressed FLAC files.

I ran a test on my Windows PC (faster than a Synology NAS). Seeking to the end of your uncompressed test file took 9 seconds. After converting the file to the default FLAC compression level 5, this took 3 seconds. After adding a seek table using metaflac, this took 0 seconds.
...

For those interested, my new Linn DS does not seem to jump to the next track when I try to skip ahead into a track. I tried skipping around 12-13 minutes into one of my longer tracks. The Linn thought about things for around 30 secs, then started playing at the point I had skipped to.

I may still try adding a seek table, but I'm almost full time ripping at the present.
