dCS is a high end audio company who proposed a standard for sending native DSD data over USB (see http://www.computeraudiophile.com/files/DSD%20over%20USB.pdf) A very simple solution. It also works over firewire and even S/PDIF depending on the actual implementation. > > With this I'd like to: > > - expand the dsdiff_decoder_plugin to output to DSD-over-USB PCM data in > > SAMPLE_FORMAT_S32 if the user selects it in the configuration > > How will (fallback) conversion to PCM work, once you have converted > everything to DSD-over-USB? My idea was that the dsd decoder either calls dsd2pcm or the newly to introduce dsdnative function depending on the user configuration for the dsd decoder. [as I mentioned earlier, it would be really nice if we could select dsd output type [native|pcm] per configured audio_output] Jurgen ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Systems Optimization Self Assessment Improve efficiency and utilization of IT resources.
