  • USB DAC Native DSD Support

    PS: Your logic is: Just transfer the codec from A to B. In reality things are more complex, so processes have to be scheduled etc. That's when drivers come into play. They don't just manage the codecs, but also the timing. Your proprietary ASIO driver is incomplete on Linux for a reason.

  • USB DAC Native DSD Support

    If you just want a good DAC, then you don't need DSD. I'm using a cheap Behringer UMC22, which provides 48kHz /16 bit PCM. It uses standard ASIO, so it works perfectly with a Linux OS, like LE.

    ASIO is more than a bypass. It's a low-latency audio solution.

    If your proprietary ASIO sounds bad, try a standard ASIO interface. LE is no low-latency OS, so you eventually lose data on transmission.

  • USB DAC Native DSD Support

    In short: You want to use a USB audio interface, connect it to the AVR over S/PDIF, and play native DSD.

    This setup is generally possible with LE.

    Theory: I think the problem is the proprietary ASIO driver of your USB audio interface. Because it's proprietary, not all codecs are usable by LE. That means, LE offers all codecs, including hi-res native DSD, but the incomplete Linux driver only accepts lo-res DSD.

    Suggestion a): Use a USB audio interface, which is fully supported by Linux.

    Suggestion b): Use an RPi with HiFiBerry Digi2 Pro, as mentioned at post #8.

  • Getting TVheadend to work

    LE seems to get data for the first frequencies, but afterwards no more data are coming in.

    Maybe undervoltage inside of the receiver?

    Please provide a product link of your DiBkom 7000PC. Does it have an optional PSU, which you can plug in?

    PSU is fine, no undervoltage warning in the log.

    Different time stamps in the same log?

    PS: Ah, it has no internal clock, so time is wrong until NTP gets it.

    Quote from Billzilla

    While it was scanning a few times a signal strength popped-up on the screen but then disappeared.

    Repeat that procedure with logging. It could be a PSU issue. if so, it's visible in the log.

    Please provide a full debug log.

    How to post a log (wiki)

    1. Enable debugging in Settings>System Settings>Logging
    2. Restart Kodi
    3. Replicate the problem
    4. Generate a log URL (do not post/upload logs to the forum)

    use "Settings > LibreELEC > System > Paste system logs" or run "pastekodi" over SSH, then post the URL link

  • USB DAC Native DSD Support

    NSXD We support native DSD for some audio interfaces, but it's limited on HDMI (PCM down-sampled, as described by you).

    How to use MPD for native DSD via USB DAC

    I guess my question is even more general in that I have no idea how to use the MPD service add-on at all. Once installed, how do I utilize it?

    For background, I posted this thread and was asked to repost my specific MPD question here Native DSD on Raspberry Pi

    I know that native DSD via USB from a Raspberry Pi is possible, as VolumIO supports it. It is also my understanding that VolumIO is MPD based.

    That's about where my understanding ends. I found this thread: Raspberry Pi 4 + LibreElec +…

    Raspberry Pi 4 + LibreElec + Music Player Daemon + WavPack DSD

    Hello! :)

    I installed LibreElec 9.95.1 and mpd (as service addon) and found that when playing WavPack DSD files with a samplerate of more than 384 kHz, the sound is very interrupted. A search on the Internet did not give anything, the mpd settings also did not bring any result. And then I accidentally looked into:

    mpd -V

    ­— and found that it was built without native support for the WavPack format, that is, it decodes it using ffmpeg. And ffmpeg DOES NOT RECOGNIZE DSD compressed with WavPack.
