Always 16 bits for Roksan k3 Dac

Hi,

I’m using the last version of volumio and at first everything seemed to work fine.

However, when I look into the file stream0 i notice that the number of bits were always
16.

I tried to force the number of bits to 24 (which my dac suports) in the mpd file but i only was able to change the sampling frequency. It seems volumio ignores completly the number of bits at least with my dac.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Hi!

Try to change settings under Volumio Sources menu, Sound Quality to “Hi-Res”.
When I had “Highest Possible”,which is the intuitive choise here, I only got 44.1/16 to DAC, but when I changed it to Hi-Res a get highest bitrate. Go figure… :wink:

Hi,

Thanks for answering.
I dont have that option.
I’m using last version of volumio on PC.

Thanks.

My stream0 file:
Playback:
Status: Running
Interface = 1
Alset = 1
Packet Size = 72
Momentary freq = 48000 Hz

Interface 1
Alset 1
Format: S32_LE

Bits: 16

Interface 1
Alset 3
Format: S32_LE

Bits: 24

The problem is that volumio never choses the Alset 3. I dont know why. Ideias? Does anyone has the same issue?
