Title: DLNA server playing DSD source
Post by: pluto on March 22, 2019, 03:10:30 pm: I have a DLNA server set up to deliver MP3 (high bandwidth) audio to its clients. Works well, when playing any of my PCM material (max 192kHz). However, I have some DSD source material. The audio delivered to the clients is roughly on a par with 7 bit (dithered) via the bit-depth simulator, in other words – rather noisy.

What to do please?

p.s. supplementary question... when you select MP3 output for a DLNA server (as above), where is the sampling rate sent to the client determined? Can it be changed, or is it internal and private to the software?

Make sure that you are using the SOX resampler and set dithering to TPDF these setting are found under Tools>options>Audio, dithering is in the advanced section of the menu.

It works for me.
