Nothing fancy, cheap indeed- they just bolster the Marantz which is nice but big on the midrange. ( there's another fork floating around web that has slightly more customizable UI but is buggy) For both, I use Airfoil which allows sending audio to my Airplay device ( and I guess Airplay converts anything higher down to 16 / 44.1) which is a Marantz Consolette while simultaneously playing through the 2.1 speakers I have coming out the headphone jack. Often I use Swinsian (which offers playback for my one (!!!!!) DSD album, but it's glitchy so I don't use it for that) and most often I use this fork of Cog:īecause it's so simple. Its up to the apps to implement their side of the API correctly.Audirvana+ seems to sound a bit better than iTunes or others I've tried, but surprisingly it won't play OGG files so I stopped at the free trial.
SWINSIAN VS AUDIRVANA DRIVER
If any app can change the sample rate on the device using CoreAudio (and many can), then the driver is implemented correctly. In any case, I stand by my statement they have a bug. If they use the NominalSampleRate property, CA will manage the stream format for them and the sample rate will change. But that's why CA hosts shouldn't try to manipulate the stream format directly - it is too easy to mess it up. Now, it is likely that our reported configuration (which is actually correct) is leading to their code building an invalid configuration for the stream format. They appear to be trying to manually change the device stream format, and it looks like they are coming up with an unsupported configuration for the 2d device. There is a CoreAudio property called NominalSampleRate that is what should be used for changing the device sample rate. I turned on advanced logging and looked at the log and it appears to me that they are doing the Sample Rate change wrong. It does change the sample rate on the 3d box.

We finally got KODI downloaded and configured.Īs you say, it doesn't change the S/R on the 2d box.

Thank you very much for your help, and good luck for those hard times we're in) I know it tames a bit of time, if somebody passing on the forum and confined at home has the time to try I could be helpful too. (for this step, you may have to go to Settings/Medias/Library and add a directory containing the 2 audio files. play a 44,1kHz and a 48kHz files in it, and check if the Sample Rate of the 2882 follow the sample rate of the medias.

choose "expert" mode (down on the left) Here are the few steps, after the installation :
SWINSIAN VS AUDIRVANA MAC OS
Maybe it's just my Mac OS who is broken ?īut if you guys have 2 minutes to test Kodi, that would be really nice. I'm sorry I really don't want to be the guy who complains about stupid stuffs.Īnd it won't be the end of the world if I don't use Kodi for playing my music (the world has bigger problems this times.)

I wait for news about you telling if those bugs were detected (and corrected)
SWINSIAN VS AUDIRVANA UPGRADE
(Kodi is a freeware but a very old ans serious software)Īnd I'd LIKE to upgrade (the 3D card is waiting on my shell since since 2 months), but I can't because I tried to redo my all-day config with the "offline domaine" and there are bugs (that I already reported).Īnd because of this bugs I can't do my configuration.So I can't upgrade for now ! In the end, I'm between 2 teams telling me it's somebody else's fault !Īnd the fact is that I love and respect both of you ! (I'll talk about them about "CA applications" to see if they understand) I told the guys of Kodi the problem I had, and they were convinced it was a driver problem.
