The audio on a HDMI connection is digital, so it will use the DAC in the receiver. To try to judge the real from the false will always be hard.

[slim] HDMI audio out on SqueezePlug -- analog or digital?
If I hook a SqueezePlug device up to the HDMI input on my A/V receiver, is it going to send a PCM bitstream to the receiver's built-in DAC, or is it going to send analog audio processed by the Pi's own DAC? If the latter, is there any way to switch it to PCM digital, or am I going to have to give up on HDMI entirely, and spring for a USB to SPDIF interface to get a digital bitstream to the receiver? the nightfly's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=42075 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=99142 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Hi if you try the piCorePlayer on your raspberry I have seen reports that you will be able to get 96/24 audio out of the HDMI (192/24 produces noise) Look here: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?97803-piCoPlayer-Squeezelite-on-Microcore-linux-An-embedded-OS-in-RAM-with-Squeezelitep=749872viewfull=1#post749872 Steen piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi (25MB in RAM).
