Vince:
Yes, you may be right. I just connected one of the servers directly to the router and, naturally, it booted up fine. It hung when reinserted in its usual location.
I'll start by resetting the power ethernet adapters (again) but will let them power down for a while longer.

I'm sad to say I'm somehow gratified that it's not just me.

Hi, has someone used shairport plugin to stream from an appletv2?
If so could you help me with the settings, I get daphile to show the stream on the player but no sound and it just go to "stop", if I hit play it just "stop" immediately, played a little with settings but really don't know what I´m doing...
Streaming from my Macbook works fine.
Thanks!

Cambridge Audio CXA80
Hello,
I own Cambridge Audio CXA80 with USB XMOS port connected to Daphile (Lenovo ThinkCentre M58) with an internal hard drive. Everything works fine.
Daphile Settings-Audio Devices show CA CXA80 1.0. and there is HW limit: 96000Hz. Obviously I need some driver or something else to reach higher speeds. There is, on Cambridge Support pages, the possibility to download Windows driver for 2.0, but it is unusable in my case.
Does someone of you had or have similar issue?
Any solution?
All the best

Hi,
Thank you for your answer and links. I've already read that.
From the Manual, I've understood that receiver is already in Class 2 operating mode. Windows and Linux, by default, have support for Class 1 and we need some software driver to handle Class 2 on the player (computer) side.
To be sincere, I'm very satisfied with Class 1 (24/96). I can't hear any improvement at a higher speed. But, you know,...

IMO the receiver is in class 1 and that is why it offers only samplerates up to 96kHz.
Linux (i.e. daphile) has full support for class 2.
The CXA80 user guide describes the procedure for switching using the speaker switch in detail on page 9 https://techsupport.cambridgeaudio....4419/CXA_Users_Manual_English_-_Reference.pdf

Allo Revolution Dac on Daphile : high cpu interrupt rate
Hello,
I have a Allo Revolution Dac connected to a mini-PC with linux Daphile on it.
When I use the internal sound card of the mini-pc (with the Revolution dac unplugged), the cpu usage is very low (few %).
As soon as I plug in the Revolution Dac, the cpu usage rise at ~12% constantly, even when not playinc music.
I know 12% is not a big deal. I'm just surprised that's the cpu usage even when there is no music played.
Anyway, I'm more concerned about the interrupt rate : there is ~7 000 interrupts per second on the cpu 0.
Below for an interval of ~10 seconds.
I don't know what to think about it, but it seems rather high.
it's seems to me that it's a Daphile problem (if it's a problem). With volumio I stay with ~1% cpu usage and low interrupt rate.
Thanks for helping

IMO your cause is the same as in RPi4 and Khadas Toneboard - interrupt flooding !?!? . Check your DAC with the lsusb command, my 2 cents your bInterval will be 1 too.
Linux snd-usb-audio module used to have a parameter nrpacks which specified how many USB frames were sent by the USB controller before it threw an IRQ. That parameter has been removed in exchange for some automatic determination of correct nrpacks value. Maybe trying larger period size could raise it from 1 (i.e. IRQ every highspeed frame 0.125ms = 8kHz) to something higher.
But 12% is no major load.

Thanks for the reply, and, indeed, bInterval is 1.
In Daphile, do you suggest to change Kernel/Alsa buffering Buffer time (100ms) or Period count (3) ?

Self PoweredIn Daphile, do you suggest to change Kernel/Alsa buffering Buffer time (100ms) or Period count (3) ?
First I would confirm that the values set in the GUI are actually being used - by looking at /proc/asound/YOURDACCARD/pcm0p/sub0/hw_params. Having confirmed that the daphile values are actually used (approximately, the driver picks the nearest supported value), you can try to raise the period size value (buffer size / period count). It is possible the change will have no effect on the IRQs rate - in such case there is nothing to do about it and the kernel will continue handling one outgoing microframe per one IRQ.
I don't have pcm0p/sub0/hw_params, but I guess there is some usefull information in /proc/asound/card1/stream0.
If there is nothing to do, I hope a newer kernel will improve the situation.

Bits: 32If there is nothing to do, I hope a newer kernel will improve the situation.
The stream0 file lists USB parameters, generated by snd-usb-audio kernel module. Individual altsettings can be determined from the lsusb readout, but the additional useful info provided by the driver is momentary samplerate (for async mode) and which altsetting is currently being used.
The file listing hw params including buffer and period information is generated by the sound layer common to all sound (alsa) drivers, including the usb-audio one. It is located at pcmXX/subX/hw_params of your /proc/asound/card1 directory. Look at Alsa Opensrc Org - Independent ALSA and linux audio support site

Well, there would be nothing to improve. Simply serving 8k IRQs per second takes a bit of CPU attention.
Here is my /proc/asound/card1/
Code:
daphile ~ # ls /proc/asound/card1/

By the way, thanks a lot for your involvement !

OK, thanks.
Look at Advanced Linux Sound Architecture / Re: [Alsa-user] Missing folder: /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p
My kernel has the CONFIG_SND_VERBOSE_PROCFS kernel option enabled:
Please check yours, probably disabled for kernel-size reasons.
