The OTA update will not work with this. It is completely detached from the ordinary Volumio version, so don’t expect any update, and use the OTA at your own risk
The HiFIBerry Digi+ Pro will be automatically enabled if connected, no need to enable I2S DACs. Just go to Playback Options and select HiFIBerry Digi+ Pro from the output device menu.
For best quality don’t use Software Mixer Control (although it works)
To enable Allo DigiOne go to Playback Options and enable i2s DACs, then select Allo DigiOne, click save and reboot
This build uses an experimental new kernel, so please if you notice weird behaviour report to us in this thread. It will be very important for us to receive feedbacks
Yes, it’s supported but only by the same driver as the DAC+ as far as I know; I don’t think there’s any special use of the separate clocks available in the same way as this Digi+ Pro is supported…
Thanks a lot it works perfectly now !!! I’m happy getting back with Volumio, Volumio missed me since I’ve bought Digi+ Pro two months ago. Thanks for your good work, greatly appreciated !
Hello,
thank you very much for the work done, having to flash the card and to put the settings parameters to volumio is so easy that it is little work for the result obtained.
Update I also tested the dac Audio-GD NFB-1 (2015) and it sounds even better both usb and hifiberry digi + pro where the digi + pro sounds better than usb is my experience.
First try it was ok, but after adjusting some settings I couldn’t connect to the streamer anymore (using Airplay/Shairport).
I had to reinstall the image on the SD card to get connected again.
I don’t know whether Shairport OR Shairport Sync was in use? Shairport is not as stable as Shairport sync (the same experience with Runeaudio beta which uses Shairport instead of Shairport Sync. Moodeaudio is not a problem which uses Shairport Sync only).
In addition I found it regrettable I couldn’t configure kernel settings for better sound performance.
Problem with Plugins
Installed the new version 2.203 and it works fine with the HiFiBerry Digi+ PRO card. Excellent ! Back to Volumio from Rune.
I have a test set-up with 3 buttons and LCD, using the Plugins:
GPIO Buttons Controller
Raspdac V3 Plugin
The set-up worked fine with Rasp2 running Volumio2, standard version. Both buttons and LCD worked fine, no problem.
The final goal is to built a Media player with linear power supply, (3.3 and 5.0 V), LCD and some buttons on the front panel to make it look nice. The DAC is AMB Gamma3.
Installed both plugins.
switch on (1), works fine; pause, forward, back, no problem.
switch on (2), the titel flash on to the LCD display, and after say 3 seconds the Volumio freeze.
The LCD is using the following GPIO: rs: 7, e: 8, data: [25, 24, 23, 27] (Default settings)
The GPIO buttons, using: GPIO: 26, 15 , 14
Any idea why this happens, have now made three tests, same result each time.
