thanks for your kind word. I have a hifiberry DAC, donated by Daniel from Crazy Audio, and I have been able to compile a new kernel which support this I2S DAC. It is based on Linux 3.12.6, but unfortunately, this kernel has other problems, so it is a bit unstable at the moment. but I hope within a few days, that you will see a new piCorePlayer, that will support these new DACs, so we get rid of the USB-DAC connection problems, some of us are having. in addition, I feel that the wifi is working better. so stay tuned steen piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi (25MB in RAM).
