QNAP supply a web admin tool, which has a system information screen.
When playing an iplayer stream cpu load is indicated to be around 100%
confirming your thoughts, compared with playing a local mp3 file showing
a load between 5% and 25%.

Is there any way to avoid the transcoding, or do I have to wait for the
BBC to start supporting other stream formats?
