@KITUS > The DAC and squeezebox don't get along well after going into stand-by. >
What if you leave the dac to go into standby ? Which Squeezebox do you have ? Is it a raspberry pi with pCP ? You have so many different posts, could you please post a list of your playback chain, for example, my current one is: raspberrypi 3b+ > Squeezelite player-Allo Digione HAT > Quad CDP-2 dac > Active Mackie speakers I have run a similar system Squeezelite player-Raspberry pi Zero USB > Topping DX3 Pro > Active Mackie speakers Both the Topping (like yours) and the Mackies have Auto-sensing and power down when there is no signal. I had everything powered from a power strip. My shut-down routine was to use a remote software command to stop the piZero 2-W (sent from a mobile phone) wait a short while for the Topping and Mackies to de-activate and then power off the strip. To start up I just powered the strip on and music began to play in less than a minute. I think you need something like tihis https://docs.picoreplayer.org/projects/autostart-squeezelite-from-usb-dac/ which I think I have seen referenced in a reply to one of your posts (or maybe not:)). Using the Tidal Desktop app you say > I see the MQA logo on the screen, yet sampling frequency never goes > beyond 44.1Khz > This must be either a configuration error or a faulty device I have trialled Tidal HiFi a few times and using the Desktop app on both a Mac and Windows machine I only see 44.1 reported on a Topping E30. Trialling the Tidal HiFI-Plus on the same equipment I have seen 44.1, 88.2 and 192 rates reported on the E30. I don't have an MQA dac, (actually I have one that will act as a renderer, hut needs a firmware update) let alone an E50 and that is one of the problems with trying to determine what advice/suggestions might help you to resolve your problems. The fallback is guesswork a lot of the time:(:rolleyes: ronnie ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Man in a van's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=43627 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112760 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
