Naim Uniti Core transcode FLAC to WAV

Just as the title suggests: is it possible to convert FLAC files stored on the Uniti Core on the fly to WAV files? At least the old HDX could do this ... also convert from FLAC to WAV ...

Thanks for your reply!

You can't do this at the moment. I'm not aware of whether it's on their roadmap or not, but I vaguely remember Naim saying it was for adding later.

It is mildly annoying that the Core's UPnP server does not support transcoding. Asset can transcode, MinimServer can transcode from/to virtually any format ... what's the problem with transcoding? Why doesn't the Core's UPnP server support transcoding? Naim should first try to get their homework done. Our music collections can be reinvented later. 

The Unitiserve transcodes, but the doesn't. Oh dear.
