You guessed well ;o) It's not so obscure, that's the I2S over HDMI used by many manufacturers now, PS Audio initiated it and many others use it now. Audio-GD is one, Pink Faun as well... But it's not the standard HDMI signal, meaning it's not compatible with HDMI connexions from standard DVD players, receivers, TVs etc... which dos not transport raw I2S signal. The output is perfectly fine for PCM to my DirectStream so as it works fine in DSD for other DACs for Raspberry Pi (from reports and I personally I tried the iQaudiO) I figured it should work in this setup too. I'll try the parameter given by sbp and report ;o) SPK: Triangle Magellan Quatuor - PRE: Emotiva XSP-1 Gen2 - AMPS: 4 x Emotiva XPA-1 Gen2 - SOURCE: SOtM sms-100 - DAC : PS Audio DirectStream ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Linvincible's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=63198 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97803 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
