Strangely enough I tried those exact instructions yesterday but for some
strange reason the “Output Setting” field was just showing ‘equal’ and
there was no available dropdown.  I had been using a HiFi berry+ DAC HAT
on this pi previously maybe that had something to do with it.

This morning I just re-flashing the sd-card which solved that little
issue.

This is the “Output Setting” that eventually worked with the Dante USB
adapter.

Hope that its OK to post this here.

I've been looking for ways to migrate some audio devices to Dante so
that I can do whole house Audio over IP. I purchased a 'Audinate Dante
USB 2x2 dongle'
(https://assets.audinate.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Dante-AVIO-USB-Marketing-Datasheet-20210119-en.pdf?)
in the hope that I could use it directly with piCorePlayer.

It is recognized in linux as expected, configured correctly on my
network and paired with a Dante Master, however I don't appear to be
able to play any audio through it when connected to the pi.  Maybe
someone knows what I might need to tweak to configure it properly.

BTW: I have my Transporter hooked up to the XLR version of this Dante
Adapter which is working great.

The PCP_BOOT partition is definitely there when I write the image to the
M.2.

Just guessing since this is not really familiar territory but I think
the reason maybe because the M.2 card is seen as 'sda1' and the script
[FS Resize] probably expects to see a memory card on 'mmcblk0p2'.  Write
or wrong, setting it up on an SD card then using dd to clone it to the
M.2 worked so I am at least up and running again now.

Guys

Can anyone tell me how to manually resize the partition.  I'm using a
USB to M.2 SATA board for the pi with a 32Gb M.2 card and for some
reason the resize filesystem option within pCP refuses to run.  I'm
getting a message saying that the resize option is disabled to prevent
damage to the SD Card.  I have been using this setup for a while and
must have resized it with the inbuilt tool at one point in time. I have
tried to re-write the image to the M.2 drive a few times. 

I wasn't able to do an insitu update to 5.0, I couldn't figure out why
squeezelite wound'nt start after the update so I just went with a fresh
install but obviously wont be able to get any of the extras installed
until I'm able to resize the drive.

TIA

That sure puts the dampers on that idea, in my excitement I totally
missed that.
I will keep a lookout for future announcements of the public butler on
ARM.

Feature Request : 

This is a fairly new release so I don't know if any of the dev team has
caught onto this yet.

Ravenna have just released linux drivers and source for implementing
AES67 on linux.  I have been eager to see this happen for quite
sometime.  I hope one of the devs are interested enough to take this one
on-board and include in piCorePlayer.

Any thoughts on implementing AES67 on picoreplayer, a few very high end
audio players are now supporting audio over IP.

Just wanted to chime in and congratulate you guys on this build.  Using
a Pi 2 + official 7" screen.  It was very easy to setup and use.

Tested on 2 external USB DAC's so far without a problem I have another 2
DACS to try which I noticed aren't already in the database so if I do
get them working I'll certainly send the info in.

 A quick Google, it seems that the 105 is UAC2 compliant and people are

Thanks JackofAll for taking the time to respond

I didn't have anything in the alsa params field but I did eventually get
the OPPO's USB DAC to work.  

I appear to have a rouge/ghost squeezeliteWAND, ie two devices with the
same name that show up in the choose device list and it also appears in
my LMS dropdown for a short time after rebooting the Wandboard.  I
haven't figured out why, but if I do choose the wrong one I seem unable
to select the OPPO's USB as the output device.  Its strange because
after a couple of minutes the ghost device disappears.  I have 6 other
SB devices and I've never seen this behavior before.

So you can scratch my previous comment, Wandboard - OPPO 105 USB DAC
works.

Received my Wandboard Quad a few days ago.  I can report that it does
not currently work with the USB DAC on the OPPO 105

The OPPO appears as OPPO USB Audio Device in the 'Audio Output Device'
menu but the next screen won't allow me to activate it.

Works fine plugged into the OPPO's spdif input
