Re: [slim] Do any Squeezeplayers actually have the horsepower to play 192/24 remote streams?
Thanks to everyone who took the time to try to help. My initial query was in this thread since AndrewFG started it off describing his experiments in higher resolutions. I suppose I'll have to wait for newer versions of Whitebear. It's a great app, just not yet ready for the highest resolution files. In any case, perhaps this thread can stand as a reference for people who have had the same issue. I have no doubt the smart people working on the issue will get it all sorted out eventually. Thanks again.

I can get larger files (up to 24/192 and SACD ISOs) to play if I select Convert unsupported formats but the conversion goes right past 24/96 (LSM's limit) to CD quality. With the setting of Never convert I can play most files of 24/96, but anything higher and I get some serious stutters. That happens with some 24/96files too, and in this setting, SACD ISOs aren't recognized at all. Setting delays, play from memory, etc. hasn't improved the situation. If I'm doing something wrong I'd greatly appreciate any advice. I should mention that I never deleted the LSM DLNA plug-in since I can't find it. Again, if my situation is a result of doing something wrong, I'd love to hear about it.

Is this what you mean? Player Model: Squeezebox Touch Firmware: 7.7.2-r9663 I'd be very grateful for any help getting higher resolution files to play on JRiver through Whitebear to the SB Touch.

Re: [slim] Do any Squeezeplayers actually have the horsepower to play 192/24 remote streams?
Thanks for the feedback. I have the original DacMagic which accepts only 24/96, so EDO doesn't work for me. It does make me wish I had a better Dac so I could try it out! I have no problem playing files over 24/96 on the Touch. My problem is I'm trying to use JRiver as a front end, through Whitebear, to the Touch. Of course, LMS on its own downsamples larger files to 24/96. My problem going through Whitebear is those 176, 192, and 196 sample rates have stuttering playback. If I use the convert option, the files are downsampled too much. I'm sorry if I'm hijacking this thread but I'd love to discover I'm doing something wrong.

Re: [slim] Do any Squeezeplayers actually have the horsepower to play 192/24 remote streams?
The squeezebox on its own successfully down converts higher sample rates to 24/96, and I have no problems. The JRiver-Whitebear-squeezebox combination, on the other hand, has considerable problems with the larger files: they stutter to the point of being unplayable. As I said, I can tell JRiver to convert the file but it then converts everything all the way down to 48hz. I can't figure out how to get it to convert the large files only to 96, and yes, I've tried the DSP studio settings. I'm skeptical that the highest sample rates will make a difference, but I'd want the files to be at least playable. BTW, I'd like to use JRiver for the tagging and SACD ISO playback, but the combination isn't working for me.

Sorry to bump this thread but can I assume from this that Whitebear will soon be getting support for 24/96 files? Perhaps I set things up wrongly but HD files always downsample for me. If an upgrade is in the future that would be very good news indeed.
