Using same recording, only difference PCM or DSD, play with Daphile and let us know your experience.
Ah, a nice, unbiased test by two people with no skin in the game 🙂
Has been won already. The recording medium is hard disk. Mostly with delta-sigma converters, but if it is a DSD converter, the result is usually converted to PCM ("DXD") for processing, as DSD can not be processed in native format. The result is then converted to DSD if DSD distribution is desired...
I recorded 1Khz sinus in pcm & in dsd, I measured the output voltage of 3 dB more in the pcm.
Now is enough information for you.
Now is enough information for you.
With one DAC, how many different tracks? From how many different sources?
No. Yesterday was enough information. Tomorrow is another matter....
Hello, has anyone had any success running daphile as an hyper-v vm? I am trying to and am having issues with the network interface. I am using legacy NIC drivers and the native drivers do not work. However, it appears whenever I reboot, I need to shutdown the vm, uninstall the NIC and reinstall before I get the "Ready. Use the Web interface..." message.
Anyone else experiencing the same issue? Any know workaround?
Thank you.

Hi!
How to "shut down" the Daphile server from android phone?
In the sqeezer there is only "disconnect" option.

Depending on which squeeze app you are using, some of the "settings" might not be available from the Android device. That includes shutdown.
Since I received numerous responses to the previous question it is time to ask my next..
Has anyone noticed the problem when playing ape image files.. player repeating last two seconds of each song.. flac image work properly..

Yes, I noticed. I always switch on the computer to shout down the daphile server. What about to use Ctrl+Alt+Del on the server machine??
Few ape albums plays OK, some of them not.. must find what is different in cue files..
But in foobar everything is fine.. maybe need some time for me and Daphile, we are together only one day..

I decided to try Daphile with a goal to have audio player connected to my HT system. Main target was to get multichannel FLAC files played through HDMI to AV processor. I used Asus Chromebox hardware with custom BIOS. Unfortunately I didn't get any audio output via HDMI. Even boot picture only was seen when I connected Chromebox directly to Samsung TV. When it was connected to AV processor, video was absent too. Daphile software runs correctly and I could get stereo music played via analog output from Chromebox. Unfortunately without shell access and basic tools in Daphile image it is not possible to do even basic troubleshooting.
A couple of weeks I came accross Daphile (I was already using LMS through the standard interface for years for my Squeezebox Duet and Touch and also used SqueezePlug and PiCorePlayer on my Raspberry-Pi). I used it first on my regular PC (running off a 8GB USB-stick) and I liked it a lot !!
Yesterday I bought an ASUS Vivo Mini NU42 (Celeron 2957U/4GBmem/32GBstorage - sold for 250 Euros in The Netherlands) to be used as dedicated audio server and plugged in my USB-stick and to my surprise Daphile started without any problem* !! I can stream to my SB Touch but also use my direct attached USB-DAC. Great audio application !! I am a happy man ... 🙂
(*: before I was able to run Daphile I needed to change some settings in the UEFI, since this box is sold with Windows 8.1 with Bing installed. Therefore I needed to switch the security settings and choose the USB-Stick to boot from)

I confirm the PERFECT synergy of daphile with the fabulous Audio-gd Reference 5.32 dac. Everything worked flawlessly from the beginning with top-notch sound. Only missing is the reproduction of DSD files, which currently is impossible as the dac does not support DoP.
