Oops ... just to add .. tried 3:u8, u16le, u16be, u32le and u32be with -D and dsd files are just white noises. Reverted back to just -D and dsd files plays but not dsd256 ones when dc03 pro is marketed with native dsd256 capability .. presumably becos it is dop with limited bandwidth. Cheers.

The output from alsacap should list at least one DSD sample format for the iFi if it actually supports native DSD, which doesn't appear to be the case from your previous post. Eg from my iFi ione nano Code: Card 2, ID `Audio', name `iFi (by AMR) HD USB Audio' Device

If you are playing true DSD, then I would not force alsa to 16bit (Third field in the -a line). Let the value in the -D line take care of the bits. piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM. Homepage: https://www.picoreplayer.org Please 'donate'
