It is still converted to PCM so it seems: format: S32_LE
It should be DSD_U32_BE
I think you should use Media Player Daemon which supports this format.
Try HF Onkyo player or Usb audio player ( Android tv box). Both play DSD without resampling to PCM.
Input DSF 5,6 ---- > Output DSF 5,6 as shown
I think the point here is using it with CoreELEC
Last time I messed with this it borked my whole install.

As I see (hear), Kodi doesnât support native DSD, itâs converted to PCM, but the quality is good with the latest test file. It may be useful to add it to the next nightly.
Then this change in kernel to support DSD is useless anyway?
I think itâs useful because the conversion is good, but I donât have many DSD files, just tested with 2 files, I mostly use flacâs.
But DSD_U32_BE format is not even used. So I doubt there is any change.
I have installed SACD ISO support add-on, I will test with the latest nightly, and will see if I hear something special. It doesnât matter if the output is PCM, only the conversion quality can be better.
I tested and the quality is the same, I donât hear any differences.
Just for any case run this command while playing to see the format used.
cat /proc/asound/card*/pcm*p/sub*/hw_params
Donât need to install the MPD Add-on also? Now Iâm on latest nightly and no time to try, maybe tomorrow.
@outolintu did you install the MPD add-on? If not, give it a try.
If I understood right, MPD is a music server on its own, it needs to be configured and it uses a different frontend than Kodi.
Not trying it this time.
Hi, just tried using mpd from my pi to the USB connected ustar DAC - configured mpd to output to the ustar and played a dff file and ustar says itâs getting DSD.
So to uses coreelec I need it to see the ustar correctly (i.e.to have DSD capability) and kodi to pass dff directlyâŚhmmmm
Hey man, could you upload this again?
Iâd like to get DSD working on my box for mpd with a DAC.
Try this one (I have tobuild it again but not sure if everything is included).
Nope, still not getting DSD_U32_BE
