Hi,
hoping to find some help here on how to set up sample rate conversion on Squeezeserver 8.3.0 running Linux. I acquired MiniDSP DDRC-24 Dirac box to run Dirac based DRC on my system. https://www.minidsp.com/products/dirac-series/ddrc-24 This MiniDSP and Dirac works great so far, but according to information published on audio science review DDRC-24 internally resamples everything to 48kHz and does it very badly, so it is recommended to run sample rate conversion before DDRC-24 and feed it with 48000Hz signal. https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/measurements-of-minidsp-2x4hd.2459/page-2 I have dedicated an old Squeezebox Classic for this task and would like to perform sample rate conversion for all data types it receives on squeezebox server. What I already managed is to assemble a custom-convert.conf (thanks to information I found here) containing the conversion below for Flac files, which are a majority of my library. flc flc * 00:0:00:00:00:00 # FT:{START=--skip=%t}U:{END=--until=%v}D:{RESAMPLE=-r %d} [flac] -dc --totally-silent $START$ $END$ -- $FILE$ | [sox] -q -t wav - -t flac -C 0 - rate 48000 It works wonderfully for Flac so far, resamples all sampling rates on the fly for the defined mac address, in track scrolling works as well, so all good with Flac. Now there are couple more formats in my library, so i am looking for help to roll the conversion out for this formats as well. These formats are in particular: - mp3 (all aver the place rewarding bit rate, VBR, CBR etc.) - aac (mostly 256 CBR I guess) - dff/cue - dsf Any help would be greatly appreciated. Just some side notes regarding DSD. I have DSDPlayer (v1.07) installed, unfortunately it only downsamples to 44100Hz when sending the stream to Classic. I would like to keep it installed for other devices like Touch. I also don't want to convert DSD files to PCM permanently, as my main system (PicorePlayer and Teac UD-501) can play did natively just fine. I have tried C3PO plug in, but found the results to be erratic and gave up in lack of progress.
