No you should not add it in the "tweaks section". The easiest is probably to put the SD-card into another computer and then simply add disable_audio_dither=1 to the config.txt file found on the SD-card. There is a new version almost ready which have this enabled by default, but you can easily add it yourself. redgum wrote: > Are there any other reasons why I'm getting this hiss? > Would it go away if I used a DAC instead of the analogue out? It is a problem with the RPi2 board. Regarding your question about adding a DAC - yes then this hiss will go away and you will get so much better sound quality compared with the analog out.
