Reply To: Hifiberry Dac+ Pro squeezelite LMS 7.9 nightly DSD fail

Hi guys
Let me join this conversation as I’m experiencing kind of similar (if not the same) issue – but I can’t resolve it with the same results as Rene did.
I’m using I2S Soekris DAC, latest LMS 7.9 (M2P 2.29) and latest version squeezelite player. with DSD files I can only hear a noise in the speakers and silent music in the background only when I put volume up drastically. I tried different settings, following Rene solution but can’t get it working.
DSDPlayer plugin doesn’t help and actually with the new LMS 7.9 and new squeezelite player the support for DSD is native – even without DSDplayer plugin I can see DSD settings for Files Formats in M2P Advanced settings.
Is it because the signal from squeezelite is downsampling? I can play anything else without a problems – even HD files (192/24) but no DSD 🙁
Apparently people using pico player don’t have such a problems.
