Soundcheck, I come to the same conclusion. No way to have DoP on Allo Boss, I spent a lot of time before realizing that...OK. Stupid me.
Boss/PCM5122 doesn't support DoP at all. I checked the datasheet and
Allo also confirmed it.
What will work though is using the DSDplayer plugin and convert DSD to PCM.
Just tested it!
That'll generate a 352k8 PCM stream from DSD128 material.
Sorry for the confusion.
Enjoy.
DSD to PCM conversion using DSDPlayer or C3PO plugins on LMS is confirmed.
Thanks for your attention.
Folks.
Not sure if it was mentioned earlier - at least I missed it (been too long on vacation).
pCP 4.0 is available since 6 weeks already.
I wasn't aware of it since recently.
Anyhow. I had a look at it now.
And wrote some lines about it. You probably know where to find these lines.
Thx to the pCP team for such a great job again!

I'm having a similar issue with DSD128.
I have the AUDIOPHONICS DAC I-Sabre ES9038Q2M hat, currently running on piCorePlayer 4.1 (rpi3).
DSDPlay is setup on my LMS, and I'm using the DSD enabled version of Squeezelite.
When I playback a DSD128 file, I see this in the debug logs:
For reference, this is what I get with a DSD64 file:
I saw an earlier post about using the audio kernal, but that doesn't seem to be an option with 4.1 (only the real time kernel).
Any help will be appreciated, and if you need more info, let me know 🙂

The audio kernel, just changed name......it is a Linux-rt kernel now.
AFAIK, DSD isn’t going to work like you want in the i2s bus. Those doing DSD at high rates are using USB.

I'll try the new kernel - will I need to re-flash the sd card?
The audiophonics product page implies that it can do DSD128 over i2s (for rpi), and their support said that it "works for them" (though not sure if they use piCorePlayer)

Looking through those docs, that appears to be the card that requires a 3rd party driver, for full support. There are many questions as to the legality of that driver, therefore we do not include it in piCorePlayer.
No output via USB?
First of all, thank you so much for piCorePlayer! It looks fantastic and may be just what I need. Quick troubleshooting question for the forum:
My player (rPi B+, screen, no HAT) works just fine via the analog headphone output. However, when I try to output via USB, I get no audio. I've enabled USB output in the Squeezelite settings, and my DAC (Schiit Modi Multibit, either with or without the Eitr USB to coax SPDIF converter) seems to think it is locked on a source. However, I get no audio. Even while set to USB output, I can still get audio out of the headphone jack (is that correct), so I know the player is working. It is a known good USB cable (worked fine with my PC), DAC, and amp. I've tried multiple USB ports on the Pi. Others who have posted in this thread have said this hardware works great, so I'm stumped.
Any ideas? Is there a setting I missed? Drivers that need to be installed?

Hi RDaneel,
Did you try a reboot with the USB DAC installed?
You will need to reset [Squeezelite Settings] page > [Output setting] to your DAC. Look under the more> Help. It should come up with a list of devices.....click on one that looks right.

Greg, thank you so much for your help. I have tried rebooting the player (both a soft reset of Squeezelite and a full reboot of the Pi). Unfortunately, I don't see any entry for my DAC in the audio output device settings. In the list, I see the generic USB audio, HDMI audio, etc., as well as all the typical HAT DACs. On my PC, the DAC shows us as a "Schiit Eitr," but nothing but the default options seems to exist. Hmm... this one really has me scratching my head!
Ahh, I misunderstood your instructions. I'm sorry about that. I now see what you mean about the output settings and am trying to get it going...
Success! Thanks so much, Greg, your help was fantastic. Sorry that I couldn't follow the UI adequately!
Hi, do anybody tested this audio optimization ?

Does anyone know of a way to run a native UPNP/DLNA renderer on PiCorePlayer without installing LMS (I have a separate LMS server)? I don't see a gmrender package, for instance, in the available extensions.
hi mudshark,
Sorry, that's something I have never played with.
Isn't there a UPNP/DLNA bridge for LMS plugin? Can't you install that on your existing LMS?
regards
Greg

Hi Greg,
Thanks for the reply.
I have UPnPBridge installed on my LMS server (on a different pi hosting my music collection) and it picks up my smart TV but I was hoping not to have to run another full LMS server in order just to get a DLNA client on my Squeezebox but it looks like a may have to.
DLNA isn't my preferred listening mode but it's handy for auditioning music samples from Amazon, CD baby etc. via a laptop on the sofa through my main system for possible purchase later.
Thanks taking the time to reply and for all the hard work. Donation on the way 🙂

I have my music files on a Qnap NAS with minimserver installed.
I run LMS on an old Shuttle using Raspberry Pi Desktop for PC and Mac.
I have a rpi3b with an Allo Digione board connecting to my dac.
This pi has Shairport-sync and Squeezelite installed (with the [-C *] time delay added) and found this on the web
Listen to Spotify Connect, Bluetooth, and AirPlay with a Raspberry Pi Receiver - Making Stuff Work
I just ran the git clone bit and installed only the upnp.
It works well
I had previously made the digione the default output.
Just another way to skin the cat 🙂

ps. I run the basic Raspbian Stretch Desktop on the pi with ssh and vnc activated, so I can remote in easily.
