How about the Oppo HA-2? Can that be connected to the PC and be used to playback in real time?

I am using Windows MC19 with an Auralic Vega DAC. I chose WASAPI output with 2xDSD in DoP format. The sound is dull and lacklustre (with a lower volume as well) in comparison to playing the same file, say, with WMA. How can I correct it?

Also, I tried using ASIO as an alternative, but MC did not allow it, even though Vega supports it.

Hi,

-Does enabling DSD output for everything mean that JRiver internal volume control works for DSD files?
-Is it possible to do this the other way around and have the JRiver server convert all PCM to DSD, then the renderer will just see all files as DSD anyway. Plus the server does the heavy lifting?

You can pick DoP (using any hardware direct output) or 2xDSD (using ASIO).

Hi Matt, the setting of the options > bitstreaming: (none, HDMI, DSD ...) bit as no effect on this feature right?

I'm not 100% sure, but pretty sure still that any volume changes will be done before DSD output. I do not think MC is able to adjust volume on a dsd bitstream.

The other way around is something else entirely and that is not possible with output format (it just changes local output). Currently, real time conversion of files streamed to a client/renderer do not allow for configuring dsd. Its a nice feature request though if thats what you mean. It would allow clients to play DSD formats natively where they're not capable of converting to DSD themselves due to processing power constraints. The only way right now is to actually convert the files beforehand and set client audio conversion option to 'never convert' and set bitstream dsd on the client. I haven't actually tested this but Id be surprised if that didnt work.

Correct, bitstream options are unaffected by output format.
