"unexpected edn of stream" usually measn one part of the transcode is
not working but since you are using c3po - it could be something else.
C3Po does some weird/clever stuff and anybody using it should post on
the c3po plugin thread to get authors attention.

Pobably - floating point PCM is a very odd format. Are you sure it is a
PCM file and not something like DXD ?

A question for the VLC forums.

LMS conversion to flac is usually for bandwidth but also it means more
time can be buffered in player and so result in less chance of
rebuffering.
IIRC 32bit wav fixed point is handled. Floating point is unusual - I
recall there have been a few time it shas comes rectnly and they seem to
related to DXD and user conversion of DXD file confused LMS. (example
