I'm not sure about DSD on my system, but I have many HD FLAC files and they play with no problems (96/192kHz) on my USB DAC

I don't understand the Sample Rate settings in DSP Studio. I set them all to No Change, and they stay like that for everything up to the 2.8Mhz DSD tracks, but when I play the 11.2Mhz track, it changes by itself to the attached (setting everything above 192,000 to 176,400.)

MC will autoswitch the sample rate on playback failure.
To disable this, see Options->Audio->Advanced.

Actually I stand corrected...

My DAC supports upto 96kHz, so when a track that is 192kHz plays, JR auto converts to 96kHz and as a result it just produces a load of pink noise.

When using the PC, the conversion down to 96kHz works fine

danhardison:
Thanks for all your replies.

In summary, I haven't found anything that I can't play.. and it all sounds good.

I am just playing around to see what is possible. I will look into updating the kernel to get greater DSD support... but I am a bit scared of this  ;-)

I highly recommend the ifi micro iDSD DAC.

That shouldn't happen.  Are you sure DSP Studio is set to convert 192 to 96?  Do plain 96kHz files play ok?  Have you tried this with more than one 192kHz file?  Maybe it's a bug.  It just seems unlikely.
