Thank you for the reply.
I did look briefly at the logs under "Info" but nothing jumped out. I could take another look.
I believe the issue would be on system startup and network connecting so the Media Server log may not be all that useful. Are there other logs available with the output from initial startup?

No more Radio?
Hello everybody, after the last upgrade (non beta) I can't hear radio no more. The radio button on the tree list on the left now asks for an URL instead of listing the available stations. I had saved some in my favorites list, but when I click on them I can't hear nothing though the time counting runs. Now and then, when I browse Daphile with my tablet, a dark screen appears with a "play" button. If I click it I hear music on the tablet (!). Any suggestions? (including switch back to previous version). Thanks

Hi to all those Gustard X20 owners. I recently procured a Singxer SU-1 and upgraded the firmware to 2.22. Then played back through the latest Daphile Beta and realised DSD512 playback with NO HISS. And to my ears there is a noticeable improvement to DSD256.
Can someone explain to me what each buffer does?
Stream Buffer --- ?
Output Buffer --- ?
Alsa Buffer Time --- ?
Alsa Period Count --- ?
@Triplefun I also get a pulsating hiss when using DSD512 on my Audio-Gd NFB28

I was wrong. After several restarts there is now an initial noise when playing the first track. Fortunately it then disappears for the remainder of the listening session. This is using a gustard x20u (no electrical mods), singer su-1, and daphile with all music, other than DSD, being upsampled to dsd512.
The radio still works for me when using the latest beta but not all stations. I have not experienced the tablet 'dark screen'. Try loading the beta.

I have a Mitac PD10RI MT motherboard and it don't have any option for disabling Audio in the BIOS (only an option for disabling "Front Panel Audio")
So to keep Daphile from loading the driver for the Intel sound card, I have "blacklisted" the driver.
- log in as root (beta version of Daphile)
- nano /etc/modprobe.d/sound.blacklist.conf
- add the following entry to the file and then save and close it:
- blacklist snd_hda_intel
Does anyone have a better suggestion ?

I have tried to disable the Front Panel Audio in the BIOS, but it does not disable Audio "completely"
I tried, but Daphile will still load the Intel sound card driver.
Please read the "The shortest audio path is the best" section from Audio Dandy's blog Audio Dandy - How to enjoy High Resolution Audio
I am sorry but that section contains lots of incorrect information.
As of Intel HDA - just pick the soundcard you want to use in daphile config (I assume it offers such basic functionality). Having Intel HDA driver loaded does not mean it must be used for playback.
Can you specify which of the information that is incorrect and why?
I have a DAC (USB) connected directly to my motherboard (PC), so no need to load unnecessary driver(s)
The whole section on linux audio, alsa, pulseaudio, Intel HDA, USB Audio.
Audio drivers (as well as other types) are loaded automatically and unused drivers do not consume any CPU and load the system. It makes no difference if drivers for other soundcards present in the system are loaded. Of course disabling other devices will not hurt, but if disabling is not possible, no problem, it is just a mental issue of feeling better.
First ensure the device is patched....

Thanks for the input kind reminder. In accordance with the provided link, it seems this security issue can be fixed by updating WDMyCloud to the latest firmware.
Thanks Triplefun but it didn't let me install anything. I did a reset of all settings to the latest firmware default and radios are back and all works
