No, there is no reason not to use C-3P0 for any player. The only limit
by design is: lossy are not supported and DSD is leaved to DSDPlay
plugin, that's working in a very similar way, but they still play
untouched by C-3PO, as any format you choose to disable.

Please note  that you have a 'general' advanced settings pane and a
player specific setting pane (under Settings, Player, and C-3PO on the
right pull down menu, where on the left you have the list of your known
players).

Normal usage is:

a. set target format and the resampling method in general settings.
b. for every player, confirm supported sample rates and codecs. Just
disable conversion and resampling for any codec if you want a specific
player not to be handled by C-3PO.

This way, starting i.e. form flac 44.100/16,  you could get LMS
resampling at 358400Hk and decoding to WAV for a squeezelite player,
send FLAC at 96Khz to a touch, WAV 44100  to a first SB3 and the
untouched original stream to a second one. If you then  would like to
decode it to MP3 for a duet in the child room, just disable flac
conversion and upsampling for that player, then use LMS standard methods
(File types and custom-convert.conf).

In more complicated situations, you may want a different upsampling
method for a specific player. In such a case, you could uncheck "use
general settings" and click "show", than you could change every single
setting just for that player.

Please, always remember to apply changes, and please forgive my bad
english.
