Trouble adding network share to library

<< < (2/2)

Well, just to close off this thread - the reason I installed MC on the pi is because I had read an anecdotal statement that the pi was able to play DSD files via MC.
I can report, that in my case it does not play DSD files successfully. It plays 2-3 seconds, then pauses 2-3 seconds, plays 2-3 seconds, etc.
Yes, I did perform the steps listed in the installation instructions to improve performance for MC on the pi. It didn't help.

Do you remember where you learned that?  I don't think we've ever said that a Pi would play DSD.

Number 9 below. I did state it was an anecdotal reference. So, what the heck - I gave it a shot  ;D

Status of Features
What I've tested that works for me:

1) Local audio playback of FLACs and MP3s (Pi 1, 2, and 3)
2) Using the Pi as a library client (Pi 1, 2, and 3)
3) Using the Pi as a DLNA renderer (Pi 1, 2, and 3)
4) Controlling the Pi with gizmo or eos (Pi 1, 2, and 3)
5) Streaming to gizmo from the Pi (works on Pi 2 and 3, not on the Pi 1)
6) Normal window resizing
7) ALSA-compatible USB DACs
8 ) Using an external hard drive with the Pi (some additional configuration required for some drives)
9) A user has reported that DSD works on the pi (as of 2017)
