I believe if you go to Settings->Advanced->File Types you can find the WAV->WAV entry which is probably set for "NATIVE" by default. Change this to "disabled" and I believe SqueezeCenter will automatically perform this transcode to FLAC. You will not lose any sound quality but it should reduce the network and buffer usage dramatically. It's worth a shot anyway... Ben
