JRiver Media Center 20.0.129 for Debian (Wheezy) ARM
Zhillsguy:
Although I don't run Linux, I found that using "Gapped Fade" under Audio Options/Track Change reduces pops with my USB DACs, not sure if that option is in the Linux version of MC, worth a try.

Some DACs always make pops when changing sample rates, if that's when you hear them it's a hardware issue that JRiver cannot fix (it's a relay switching).

Thanks Mate,
I know how relay switching sounds (like a physical click inside the DAC) - what I'm talking about is a loud pop sounds form the speakers at full volume...
I'll keep trying to isolate it...

That's what I'm talking about. The relay switch in many DACs causes a loud pop to come out of the speakers when sample rates switch.

However in 99 percent of the cases when I'm playing music that changes sample rates it doesn't do a loud pop... And to complicate it further it sometime pops while playing a song so it's not a sample rate change... ;-(

You didn't say if you tried the fixed format output instead of Auto.
The other difference between MC and other programs is that it doesn't use the linux resampler. You could set DSP studio to resample everything to a specific rate to see if that changes anything.
Also, set the track transition to gapless and turn off the eliminate silence switch.
Other that that, I'm not sure where else we can go with this. MC uses a very simple interface to the sound device so it's not likely that changes in MC will affect this, especially since it doesn't seem to be present in other devices.
