I may not have been clear.  I don't want to stream PCM anywhere but over
my home wired network.  I have a LMS file type for FLAC set to convert
FLACs to PCM for my local Touch, squeezelite etc.  This fails when the
file is not local, so I'd like to set up a rule for remote flacs to
prevent it.  For other unrelated reasons I also tried setting up a rule
to convert FLAC to FLAC (I know it sounds bizarre but I had good
reasons) and this also fails with remote streams, so I'm a bit stuck.



LMS 7.9 on VortexBox Midi, Xubuntu 14.04, FLACs 16->24 bit,
44.1->192kbps. LMS & Squeeze2upnp (Alpha - derived from squeezelite) to
Musical Fidelity M1 CLiC and Marantz CR603 UPnP renderers.  Squeezelite
to PC sound.  Minimserver (server) and upplay (control point) to same
amps & to upmpdcli/mpd PC renderers.  Meridian USB Explorer DAC from PCs
to speakers/headphones.  Wireless Xubuntu 14.04 laptop controls
LMS/upplay via Firefox.   Have a Touch with EDO, and a spare, but don't
use.
