If you use any internet services then latest versions of LMS (7.9.2 onward) is nearly essential as it has better support of https than older versions. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96438 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles

OK. Rather than killing myself debugging I decided to join the existing decade and I installed QLogitechMediaServer Now the players downsample the HD audio like it used to. Now I have to dig up my old plugin I wrote for my Denon amp and iPeng since it never made the standard plugin list.

I think this is the reason. I upgraded from a QNAP 459 Pro II with Intel Atom D525 1.8 GHz at 32 bit to a QNAP TS-453Be with Intel® Celeron® J3455 quad-core 1.5 GHz processor which is 64 bit Looking at WinSCP I can see the files. I will attempt to figure out why. Maybe the upgrade did not map this share correctly. I may have to bite the bullet and install the latest LMS for QNAP Chris Aesculus's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=14876 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96438 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles

It will resample if transcode rules are working on your system. Resampling will be done using sox and maybe flac. Your LMS system is very old 2012 and sox and lms may no longer run.

Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Support for 24bit/92/192khz...?
Just got my new Touches. Pretty cool so far. Many thanks for this very helpful information: There is an applet for the Touch called EDO (Enhanced Digital Output) which will pass 176.4 and 192 on the digital outs, AND allows you to connect a USB DAC to the Touch and will go up to 192 if the DAC supports that over USB.

[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Support for 24bit/92/192khz...?
Is there a wiki somewhere that talks about high HD files are handled? Clearly, the SB Touch has a DAC in there that allows it to handle everything up to 92kHz, it seems. The other units will ultimately downsample? Furthermore, if I play a 24bit/92kHz file via an SB3 that is optically conntected to an external DAC, the file will be passed transparently? As I start buying some stuff in higher def it'd be nioce to know exactly what happens where so I can optimize it. :) Thanks! pablolie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3816 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96438 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Support for 24bit/92/192khz...?
LMS has logic that knows the max resolution of each player attached to it. If you try to play a file that is higher then the max sample rate of the player LMS will down sample it and send the player a version that is at it's max rate. The Touch can send 24/96 out its SPDIF port unaltered. If you want a higher sample rate then 24/96 you'll need to use something like VortexBox player that can support higher sample rates. agillis's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21140 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96438 ___ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles

Thanks a lot, that makes a lot of sense. I don't think I'll go all the way to 192kHz, is seems 24/88 is plenty... :) But I'd be interested in others' experiences. So an SB3 will be getting a downsampled version from the LMS whether it connects to an external DAC or not?

Re: [SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Support for 24bit/92/192khz...?
SB3 supports 44.1 and 48. Natively the Touch supports 44.1, 48, 88.2 and 96. There is an applet for the Touch called EDO (Enhanced Digital Output) which will pass 176.4 and 192 on the digital outs, AND allows you to connect a USB DAC to the Touch and will go up to 192 if the DAC supports that over USB. (There are quite a few DACs that support 192 over S/PDIF coax but not over USB) If you try and play a high sample rate file to a player which does not support that rate, the server will resample down to a rate the player does support.
