Only 16 bit depth with an external DAC
« on: October 17, 2024, 06:38:13 pm »

Hi, I have only 16 bit output with my Hiby R6 III used as an external DAC using Media Center 33 (see attached screenshot), although the Media Center shows output 32 bits. When using the Tidal app, the bit depth is 32 as it should be with this DAC. Also I tried the Hiby DAC with Windows (Media Center 32), and it showed 32 bit depth. Where could be the problem? Thanks.

Are you using core audio in MC's audio settings or selecting the actual device instead?
