DSD 64 conversion to flac

(1/2) > >>

Hi,
I am a newbie at DSD and JRiver. I am running MC22 I have a dsd album bought on line that is a .dsf file 64 bit I want to convert it to .flac to save some space on my portable. I googled the setup and found this instruction for setting up the dsp in the conversion menu:
So for 2x DSD converted to 176 it would look like
176KHz   No Change
192KHz   No Change
352KHz   No Change
384KHz   No Change
705KHz   176KHz
768KHz   No Change
>768KHz 705KHz

Yet when I attempt to play the resultant file my player (Fiio x5) says file not supported. I can play the .dsf and have several other .flacs which I ripped from CD all play fine. I'm setting something up wrong and would like to understand how to set up the conversion

Thanks

Awesome Donkey:
Try changing 352KHz to 176KHz. In fact, you might want to change all of them above 192KHz and see if that works for you.

As far as I know, the max sample rate the FiiO X5 supports is 192KHz so you'll have to at least change all sample rates above 192KHz to 192KHz, or 176KHz if you'd prefer that. :)

Thanks so much will try as soon as I get home! What exactly am I doing when I make the indicated changes? I want to try to understand.

Awesome Donkey:
Change the higher than 192,000 Hz outputs to either 192,000 Hz or 176,400 Hz. Like this...

Thanks Awesome Donkey, next question... bitdepth, what is the difference between automatic, 24, 24padded?

Thanks again
