Is there any chance DSD Wavpack this will be added to the base install?

Great work -michaelvv- - this works for me as I've been looking for a
solution as well, now that I've started compressing all my DSD stuff to
WavPack.

Hope you don't mind if I post this up on my blog later this week :-).

Because I have some SACD rips and would like to listen to them on LMS.
In fact, those DSD capable DAC chips are actually converting DSD into
PCM internally. People think they are listening to DSD music, but
they're not. You don't need DAC to listen DSD music.

I don't know the scanner but Kipeta posted a patch a few posts earlier

Why is it a bad way - defining a new audio type without changing LMS
code is the right way.

You should no change convert.conf anf types .conf but add your own rules
to custom-convert.conf and custom-types.conf
The binary does not have to be in LMS directory as long it is on the
system path (e.g. local/bin) .

If you want to handle file specifci info & metadata such as playing time
- that means code changes to scanner.

Okay this is really a bad way to do it, but I'm playing my compressed
DFF,DSF files in LMS now.

I'm on a linux version , so this is what I did..

As I never shall use wavpack for anything else as DFF,DSF I just did
these things.

in */etc/squeezeboxserver/types.conf* I altered the wvp line to

wvp wv  audio/dsf   audio

in */etc/squeezeboxserver/convert.conf* I added these lines 


Code:


  wvp dsf * *
  # FT:{START=--skip=%t}U:{END=--until=%v}D:{RESAMPLE=-r %d}
  [wvunpack] $FILE$ --dsf $START$ $END$ -o -
  



in library */usr/share/squeezeboxserver/Bin/x86_64-linux*

I copied the new vwunpack files at least version 5.0.0 , it was version
4.5

And then I just restarted the server

systemctl restart logitechmediaserver

PS! Bugs: The time on the playing  song is not working correctly, shows
much longer time.

This is why you need to define a new audio type for compressed DSD so
that a LMS just uncompresses and then passes DSD stream to a DSD capable
player.

What is the point of saving "space" with wavpack 5.x (DSF,DFF) files if
we
do not play them as DSD.

I can play DSF,DFF files (DOP) using squeezelite, but if I was able of
playing the
compressed wv files roughly (50% of original DSF,DFF filesize) this
would be awesome.

I have tried to play directly on my linux box, but I'm not able to play

Hi bpa,

Thank you for the detail explanation. Now, I have a better understanding
on how LMS deals with different formats. If the final output is not down
sampled, I am happy with it. Even if the wav was encoded into Flac, it's
still lossless. I switched back to LMS 7.9.1 already.

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Does LMS 7.9.1 support Wavpack DSD playback?

2017-09-09 Thread bpa

The main difference between unpacking into WAV vs PCM.  WAV is a PCM
stream with a header which gives details about sample size(e.g. 1ch vs
2ch  16bit vs 24 vs 32 bitt)  and sample rate (44.1kHz, 48Khz, 96KHz
etc).  A PCM is by default always 44.1Khz 16 Bit 2 ch. So if a WAV
stream is fed into Sox or Flac exes - it will keep the stream
acharacteristics but is a 96Khzz PCM stream is fed into Sox or Flac exes
then it will be output as 44.1Khz unless you have override using command
line params.  Therefore it is best use WAV format as that will enable
the conversion to deal with different sample rates & sample sizes
automatically.

This is the key conversion line.  It uses an application called Decode
(no idea - Daphile special but I sispect is a shell script which call
wvunpack - look ) converts the file name coloured in red into a wav
output stream. Looks like it forces WAV to encode stream as 176kBits. 
Very strange to have Player ID and Client MAC address in a format
conversion - must be a Daphile special.

Conversion in two parts Blue and red. The blue p[art is wvunpack into a
wav stream.   This WAv stream is a PCM stream with a header. The red
part is Sox just encoding wav stream into flac - no resampling or
anything -  don;t know why sox is used as Flac exe would be just as
good.  

If you have wavepack file which is not a real PCM stream such as DSD
then you will need an intermediate strep between wvunpack and soix to
convert the output of wvunpack from DSD into PCM.

Thanks. Your feedback is helpful to me. The "705kbps" does make me feel
suspicious about down sampling on LMS. In fact, I've tried to listen to
DFF and wavpacked DFF. I can't tell the difference.

I wish to keep the original DFF file so that I may play it on a new DAC
in the future. I have difficult to get the "player.source logs" from
Daphile. There is only limited information on Daphile. I have to ask the
designer for that. As long as windows LMS doesn't do any down sampling,
I am happy with it.

it's a placeholder for the typical 16/44.1 flac stream .

The actual rate is not presented in the UI . You have to turn up logging
and study the logfiles to actually see what the transcoding produces .

In reality when transcoding works it do produce the maxrate reported for
the player .

For example my 24/96 player gets 24/96 flac stream for my DSD files even
if the UI claims 705kbps . diti for my24/192 capable player UI still
says 705k

- you have no choice - your DSD audio will have to be converted to PCM

Ignore the LMS text about 705kbps, it is just cosmetic eye-candy and not
calculated - it is a hangover from when conversions were nearly always
to 44.kHz /16bit and this was provided as an estimate.

Daphile ? Does it no use modified version of SoX , quite possible it
uses other modifications.

Workaround create hirez pcm copies 24/88.2 or 24/172.4 depending on
original DSD rate .

Hi bpa,

Thanks for the input. I'm afraid it's more than just configuration. Some
executables may be different from windows LMS. In addition, I need to
install a beta version of Daphile in order to log into terminal, and see
those settings.
While I was playing wavpack DSD, my DDC (XMOS) showed 176.4Khz. Same
thing on windows LMS. Maybe it just a false message, because 705kbps
FLAC is just not practical for 176.4K/24bit data stream.

If it works on Daphile and not on Windows - then it is just a setting or
perhaps a custom change done in Daphile.

Enable logging player.source to INFO and compares Daphile and Windows
output playing the same file.

Hi guys,

Thanks for the input. I tried to add the custom-convert.conf in the root
folder of squeeze server (C:\Program Files (x86)\Squeezebox\server). I
added "wvp dff * *" at the first line, and restarted the server.
However, it didn't work as I expected. Is it the correct the way to do
this? BTW, I will only use wavpack for DFF.

The custom-types.conf is the same format as the types.conf file.  
Usually both "custom" files  are used by plugin which defines a new
stream / audio types to play or to override default LMS behaviours.

The other main purpose of the "custom" files is to allow user changes to
standard LMS behaviour and so they are not overwritten by a LMS update. 
IIRC there is also custom-strings.txt for userds who not like standard
LMS text.

I wasn't aware of a "custom-types.conf" file.  If you have one, can you
post it here so I can see its format?  Thanks.

I think the trying to take over wvp will not work.  I think a new type
(e.g. for example wvf for file extension wvf) is need to be defined for
compressed DSD or DFF  in a custom-types.conf and then add a new rules
for "wvf dsf" or "wvf dff" as appropriate in a custom-convert.conf

You might try writing a custom-convert.conf that uses WVUNPACK to
convert the WV file back to DSD before sending to the player.  Type
WVUNPACK on the command line to see format and available options.

[SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] Does LMS 7.9.1 support Wavpack DSD playback?

2017-09-05 Thread Phuang3

Hi,

The LMS 7.9.1 can play DFF, DSF without problem, but I need to reduce
these files on my hard drive. It seems the wavpack is the way to go. I
compress my DFF with wavpack 5.1 and replaced the wavunpack.exe on LMS
bin folder. While the LMS was playing the wavpack file, I noticed the
file format was wrong (88Khz, 8bit). What troubles me is the message for
FLAC conversion. Does LMS really convert my wavpack into FLAC on the
fly? Or, it just a false message?
