Hello everyone
I hope to be on the right post
I am in the process of making a Dac multimedia player with components from Ian Canada and a raspeberry 4.
I just bought a fifopi Q3 Ultimate and an HDMIpi MKII transmitter.
I work with the Moode reader and its latest version because I like its interface.
Everything works perfectly in PCM, but as soon as I want to play music in DSD, then I have no sound ...
I think it is about a problem of Driver because I put "Hifiberry dac".
Have you encountered the problem that I and someone knows there the answer to my problem.
I hope I have been as explicit as possible.
I thank you in advance.
cordially
GabX

Regarding Moode and or RPi audio drivers, you might have better luck finding help in the 'PC Based' sub-forum. That's where more of the software guys seem to hang out. OTOH, for configuring and using Iancanada products there would probably be more support in one of the Iancanada threads.
Also IIRC, RPi GPIO bus only supports low-ish sample rate DSD if its in DoP format. Some dacs may or may not understand that format. IIRC FIFO_Pi has a switch on it somewhere to convert incoming 'DoP' to 'Native DSD' format for output. In some cases that might help, or not.
In addition, you say you are using HDMIpi, but don't say where the HDMI is going. To some particular dac? If so what formats does the dac support over HDMI? What sample rate are you trying to send?
Might also be useful to say if you have any test equipment available for possible troubleshooting (such as an oscilloscope).

Hello
thank you very much for your return full of interesting answer for me.
Regarding the switches on the FIFOpi, they are effectively placed in the right place for the DOP DSD conversion.
Indeed, I forgot to presice that the HDMI output goes to a DAC Topping D70, which being a modern DAC, normally manages the frequencies on its own ...
I unfortunately have no other tool to control.
In any case thank you for the information of other forums which could possibly help me.
thank you
