Hi titus2002,
May I ask you to send me your image download link too?
It would be helpful.
Thanx.

Hi again. I am testing Archphile with mympd and overall I really like how it sounds! I am trying the Software mixer to control the volume. Is there any way to change the steps when pressing the + or - buttons to 1% instead of the default 5% value? so it becomes much more precise. Thank you!!
Default Setting Archphile for allo Katana DAC?
I am using Archphile on Allo Boss. I really like Archphile. I upgraded the Boss dac to Katana DAC. Installing Archphile for Katana in config is ok but works without sound. Did Katana lack the driver on archphile? Could you support me installing Katana? Thanks

Archphile is a dead project. You should stop using it and look for alternatives.
I haven't tested any of these two:
- Collybia OS - Collybia
- gentooplayer audiolinux optimized
but I have been informed that both of them are built with K.I.S.S. in mind. You may want to check them out.

I decided to write a blog post about the status of Archphile:
Happy new year! (and some clarifications about the status of Archphile project) - Archphile
I will keep revising it in order to give as many clarifications as I can.

And so were valves and vinyl 😀
For some inexplicable reason (perhaps necrophilia) Archphile as a DLNA client sounds better to me than anything else i've tried.
If we were discussing about other applications I would suggest you to use an up-to-date OS only for security reasons.
Assuming that an RPI/Odroid with Archphile is not being used at an office inside the US Pentagon, you can continue using Archphile as long as it works for you.😀

Katana+Archphile has worked well.
Edit volume in Alsamixer then restart MPD and archphile--optimize.
Thanks Mike
One of the first commands that archphile-optimize command runs is:
this command does the following:
packages/unmute at master * archphile/packages * GitHub
In summary if you want to keep some custom alsamixer settings you might want to disable /usr/bin/unmute from archphile-optimize.
Edit:
One of the major issues with regards to the support of various i2s dacs, was that I did not own the majority of them. Apart from collybia (mamboberry), iqaudio and justboom who donated me their devices in order to support them, most of the others completely ignored Archphile since day one. My only option would be to buy as many as I could, but this was something I could not afford either, keeping in mind that user donations were always very rare.

And now I see it is a dead project. Interesting still.Archphile is a dead project. You should stop using it and look for alternatives.

..and now it's alive and kicking again! 😀

Allo Piano drivres
Hi tuxx,
Do you know how to make this work with an Allo Piano 2.1?
I have been using RuneAudio which is built on ArchLinux too, however I need something more easily configurable (via SSH) and that I can update regularly.
If you know how to compile and load the Allo driver modules it would be great.
Thanks,
gm

hi gattu marrudu,
it seems you need a device overlay.
you might want to read the documentation here:
firmware/README at master * raspberrypi/firmware * GitHub
and here: this is the the description of the module you need to add
firmware/README at master * raspberrypi/firmware * GitHub
please keep in mind that there are 2 possible modules, one for the piano dac and one for the dac plus. they are also describing a software bug in the piano that stops the subwoofer channel from working in the piano

I noticed that the aarch64 version of ArchLinux does not have overlay support yet, but the ARMv7 does.
Even ifI have a Rpi3, which is aarch64, installing the "rpi2" version worked out of the box, with the Allo driver already available in the overlays. Thanks.
