kim_j_m The Netflix add-on can provide 1080p resolution, see here.

No idea whether the RPi Zero 2 W can handle such a resolution. This takes more than just playing 1080p. The stream has to be decoded first, which needs additional processing power. Investigate this, or buy an RPi 4 to be sure.

You're right, the HiFiBerry Amp2 uses the DAC+ driver.

Try these config.txt options, don't use dtparam=audio or audio_pwm_mode:

dtoverlay=hifiberry-dacplus
force_eeprom_read=0

My NAS averages at 10 MB\s read speed.

Read the CODEC specs. Add max. 4K video data rate and max. DTS (HD) audio data rate. Buffering is a workaround for some peaks, but all in all your NAS is too slow.

Use dtoverlay=hifiberry-amp.

What do I need to do to make it work? I see only ALSA HDMI and PULSE BT devices installed...

If the USB audio interface is supported by Linux, it will appear as a new output device on LE's audio settings. Just select it.

I think so. Click!

• Playing just DTS (rather than DTS-HD) still doesn't play smoothly

Did you also used direct USB (blue port) connection for this test?

It's just dtoverlay=hifiberry-digi.

• go to LE's audio settings and activate expert mode
• activate DTS inside the pass-through settings

A little research says that "HDMI High-Speed" is lower than HDMI 2.0. Because you have several "display reset" messages on your logs, I highly recommend to use an "HDMI Premium High-Speed" cable, which is available as HDMI 2.0 or HDMI 2.1 variant.

Thanks, the error is visible!

Thanks for testing! Hmm, this headset is pretty unusual, so it could be a driver issue. To be sure, we need a log file.

Sounds like an HDMI-CEC problem. Check the CEC adapter settings on LE's input device settings. Maybe one of those settings was resetted during the LE update.

Thanks. Could be a DRM Prime issue:

Start by writing the dw-hdmi kernel driver code to support S/PDIF output. Finish by connecting the cable. Add "lots of dev stuff" in the middle

What he is trying to say: Buy an HDMI audio extractor, or a USB sound card.

PS: The current log says that LE can't handle dtsHD correctly:

The "display reset" is weired. Maybe your HDMI cable doesn't support high data rate, which is definitely the case when playing 4K / dtsHD. Make sure your HDMI cable is conform to HDMI 2.0 / 2.1 standard.

You're still at log level 0. So...
