Volumio Information
Volumio Version: Volumio 2.861
Hardware: Pi B+
DAC: HifiBerry DAC+
Since upgrading I’ve started seeing strange issues with playback of ALAC files from local USB thumb drives… it seems to happen regardless of bit depth/rate (ie 16/44, 24/48)… the file plays fine but every minute or so there will either be :
- a short (1/4 sec?) blast of white noise
- a short (1/4 sec?) forward skip
- a short (1/4 sec?) backwards skip (so you hear a little bit of music twice)
I’ve reinstalled a few times and it always seem to happen… have tried increasing buffers but it doesn’t seem to help… never had this issue before (and have been a volumio user since 1.x).
Also - has anybody had any issues detecting I2S DACs with this version? Volumio seems to detect this DAC as a HifiBerry Amp2 and I have to force it to think it’s a DAC+.
I’m going to keep experimenting to see if I can figure it out - will try different USB drive etc - but I am interested if anybody has seen similar issues… you’d think local files would have the least ‘stuttering’ issues due to the ease of buffering them.
Any ides?
