I have LMS 7.9.0 installed on a QNAP 469L NAS with DSDPlayer plugin
enabled.  The player is a SOTM SMS-100 running squeezelite.   The
SMS-100 itself supports DSD throughput at its USB out, but my DAC
doesn't.  Therefore, I would like it to be ultimately transcoding to,
say, 176kHz.  

On the LMS settings' "Player" tab, it says, "This player supports native
playback of DSD files. DSD-over-PCM should be configured on the player
configuration interface"  If I play a DSF file, it appears to be
playing, but as expected, there is no sound coming out of the system
because the DAC doesn't support DSD.  If I set the file type preference
of DSF to DSF: disabled (native originally), FLAC: dsdPlay, it would
fail to even start track, and the SSOTS server log says, 
"sh:
/opt/ssods4/var/home/SqueezeboxServer/Cache/InstalledPlugins/Plugins/DSDPlayer/Bin/i386-linux/dsdplay:
No such file or directory".  I looked into the NAS's directory and see
that there is 
/opt/ssods4/var/home/SqueezeboxServer/Cache/InstalledPlugins/Plugins/DSDPlayer/Bin/dsdplay
but not one with dsdplay as a subdirectory of i386-linux.  Out of
curiosity, I tried creating a i386-linux folder and copied the dsdplay
folder into it.  After restarting server, the file type setting of DSF
would only have the DSF native/disabled setting and the flac setting
would be greyed out.  So, this is probably not the cure.

My question is, should what I intend to do (transcoding dsf to flac) be
an available option?  Is my setting at fault, or is there something else
I should look into (The QNAP firmwares this year broke support for LMS,
and I had to made some minor mods to make it run as usual. So, I don't
know if the DSDplayer plugin support is screwed up by the firmware
upgrade as well) 

Thanks.
