DSD and DSD256 Playback Issues with latest builds
« on: February 18, 2022, 02:21:47 pm »
DSD256 is having major noise and playback issues with the latest Media Center build. Have tested on 3 computers and 3 different DACS. The DSD256 is bad and displays noise and popping or just a "white noise" type output. It was working fine for a long time. DSD64 and DSD128 playback do not appear to have any easily audible issues.

Audirvana does not have any issues and plays DSD256 and upscales without any issues. I recall having these issues a long time ago as well and something was found in the programming code that needed to be corrected.

Where can I download older versions to downgrade ...?

Older versions are in threads on the forum boards.

There's no reason that should be happening.  We've not made recent changes. 

If you're comparing to any other player, make sure the settings are the same.  Read about DSD on our wiki and about bitstreaming.  The connection may matter.

I have been streaming DSD for years. Everything is setup correctly and has been checked.

The last time this happened "no changes" were made either but something had been omitted or regressed.

Please test and check ... A sizable portion of my collection can now not be played with Media Center. And Audirvana works without issue ...

No trouble here with version 28.0.106 (64-bit).

We'll take a look.

How is your DAC connected?

Are you bitstreaming or playing as PCM?  Can you test the other?  Thanks.

Well ... thought I downgraded to .105 as noted on the setup file. But it was really .106 (64bit)

Bottom line, with total clean install and re-check on Chord drivers for Hugo2 and Mojo all has been fine for an hour on one system. I have no idea what happened on 3 systems and 2 DACS. Will let know if find anything.

Operating System and playback Info on all systems
Win 11 Pro (sometimes use Fidelizer optimization)
Chord Driver - 44.1-768 1.062
Chord Mojo
