Buongiorno, vorrei sapere perchè nella schermata di Volumio viene sempre indicato 44.1kHz | 16 bit anche quando viene riprodotto un brano che il dac (smsl su-9) rileva MQA 192 kHz per esempio.

configurazione:
Raspberry Pi 4
Volumio premium
Dac S.M.S.L. SU-9

Translated, as not everyone understands Italian:

Hello, I would like to know why 44.1kHz | is always indicated on the Volumio screen 16bit even when playing a song that the dac (smsl su-9) detects MQA 192kHz for example.

configuration:
Raspberry Pi 4
Premium volume
Dac S.M.S.L. SU-9

In basic, Volumio is not licensed for MQA, so it will only pass through MQA.
MQA is build with 2 containers:

  • Lossy audio format (the one from which you see the bit-rate in volumio
  • audio container to do the MQA magic.

Volumio will display the content of the lossy audio container (44.1 kHz), but put the full stream to your DAC, which is licensed for MQA.
