A straight forward question - is there a way to stream FLAC files to the HDR-FOX T2 Freeview Recorder?
I hope the answer is that it is possible!!!

Best hope would be a transcoding DLNA server; somebody recently mentioned serviio as one possibility. It does list flac as a supported format and it does transcode but I haven't used it.A straight forward question - is there a way to stream FLAC files to the HDR-FOX T2 Freeview Recorder?

Since nobody has posted a direct answer to this direct question: the answer is no. Any solution will involve pre-conversion or conversion on the fly (transcoding).A straight forward question - is there a way to stream FLAC files to the HDR-FOX T2 Freeview Recorder?

No, the user asked if FLAC files could be streamed to the HDR-FOX T2 which I believe I answered. Your answer is to the question can FLAC files be streamed in FLAC format.The consequence of pre-conversion or transcoding is that it is not FLAC that is seeing streamed - which is what the OP was asking about.
I had assumed he'd done the same as I and plumbed a surround sound processor into the optical out and had all the speakers. I turn the TV off then for audio. It's what Martins suggested software does that I'm unsure off in relation to using it with the Humax.
. But I have a suspicion that play back isn't on the Humax.
