If native playback fails try playing transcoded version first before aborting - how?

Hi.

This problem concerns ALAC and AAC music files (so far). Every now and then LMS comes across such a file and won't play it on devices that support native playback of AAC/ALAC files = Slim::Player::Squeezebox2::statHandler (150) Error:... Decoder does not support file format, code 0
They play fine when transcoded, like on a Boom, and on all other non-LMS devices. Since I have no way of finding all files that produce this error (and even if, fixing them has failed so far), I thought:

is it (already) possible to create some kind of playback failsafe, like: if there's a "Decoder does not support file format, code 0" error for a file that qualifies for native playback on a device, let's try playing a transcoded version first and only if that fails as well abort with an error?

Thank you.
