Connection by Air Play through my MacBook Pro to Devialet Dione sound bar

(1/2) > >>

GeneChu:
Does anyone out there have any suggestions as how to connect my MacBook Pro running Media Center, to my Devialet Dione sound bar with Air Play?  I have recently upgraded to MC 31, but also tried using MC 30 and MC 28.
First I will say that my music folder is from an external hard drive, and the music plays beautifully on my MacBook Pro speakers.
Here is what I tried unsuccessfully:
• Select "play" and go to Speaker icon on my selection bar, choose Dione - as the Air Play tries to connect the devices.  The Dione is selected successfully (so it seems) and one of 2 things happen.  MC 28, 30 or 31 crashes, or no sound whatsoever.
Would appreciate any good suggestions.

Please attach an Apple Crash dump. You can copy and paste it.
AirPlay is usually 48k sometimes 44.1. You might try setting DSP studio to convert all sample rates to one or the other.

GeneChu:
Sorry Bob.  Your explanation is a bit too technical for me. Could you please explain your solution in plain non-tech form?  Thanks.

JimH:
You can read on the wiki about DSP Studio.  Use the Output Settings section to force everything to 48K, maybe to 44.1K.

GeneChu:
Tried the DSP Studio route with no luck with either 48K nor 44.1K. 😩
