Proper DSD playback settings
« on: December 06, 2013, 05:19:17 am »

Had corrupted mc 19. uninstalled and reinstalled and now dsd playback automatically converts my dsd files to 96 and 192 instead of playing the at 64 or 128. What settings do I need to get back proper dsd?
thnx Nick

If your DAC supports native DSD, enable Bitstreaming under Tools > Options > Audio > Settings > Bitstreaming: DSD

Are you getting any errors? If so, what are they?
 
Keep in mind that you need to be using a bit-perfect output (WASAPI, ASIO, or Kernel Streaming) for DSD to work.

It sounds like you have enabled DSD Encoding, which converts everything to DSD.

Player > DSP Studio > Output Format > Output Encoding

Leave output format at the defaults ("No Change" for everything) and enable DSD Bitstreaming. Do not enable DSD Encoding.
