Raw output to DAC for 5.1 and more..

(1/3) > >>

jheb:
How can I set it up to get the raw data such as 5.1 encoded data and various FLAC files to go directly without any modification etc by jriver mediacenter to my remote DAC.  I cant seem to find a combination and it keeps checking the box to do output processing even after I turn it off.  Any ideas?  I would like to play a list that has both 5.1 files and 2 channel files of various sampling rates.  Thank you!!

JimH:
Is your remote DAC using DLNA / UPnP?

If so, you can tell JRiver not to convert.  It's in the settings for DLNA.

jheb:
I am using a USB connected DAC.  I just want the raw data to be outputted without any processing by jriver.  This would allow a 5.1 track be followed by a 96/24 stereo etc.  Right now I do not see a way to stop processing by jriver and just output the raw data and let the DAC interpret the signal.  The only way I found is to set jriver to output 5.1 but then it does that with everything when a track might just be stereo.
Thank you!!!

JimH:
OK. You're not using DLNA.  Read about bitstreaming on the wiki.

jheb:
No matter what I do, the system changes it back to active 2 channel.  I change to 5.1 or uncheck Output format box , save it, restart the player and it is back to what you see -  The content has 6 channels but for some reason it keeps changing it to 2 channels - see at the bottom.  I have tried so many combinations including checking the bitstream.  One note this is the linux version not Windows.  Thanks for your help.  I have a collection of flac files at different sampling rates and mkv files that have 5.1 tracks.  They work fine in other applications.
