Hi Janui,

as mentioned in my Post before, after inserting
SOXR to mpd.conf,
MPD does not come back to life.
Restart with activated DEV(eloper) option in UI brings back an Error with Socket ?

Maybe MPD needs to be compiled with Sox support?

kind Regards,
Phil.

and again...

found in DMESG:

[ 6.551274] snd-allo-boss-dac soc:sound: ASoC: CODEC DAI pcm512x-hifi not registered
[ 6.551288] snd-allo-boss-dac soc:sound: snd_soc_register_card() failed: -517
[ 6.641858] snd-allo-boss-dac soc:sound: pcm512x-hifi <-> 3f203000.i2s mapping ok


anything to do with failure of SOXR in MPD.conf ?

super...
und wie geht das ohne Kollateralschäden ?

:: mpd and mpd-rune are in conflict. Remove mpd-rune?

Hi Janui,

Plugins and MPD update went flawless, (yip yip hoorai!) thanks for your Advice.
Edited different mpd.conf's and small script for fast switching between configs & reloading deamon.

1st Impression from upsampling 16/44 to 24/96 is a bit more Bass, Voices less transparent.
If Source is 24/96 or better, leave it untouched.
Will do more listening later, with a Pair of fresh Ears

kind Regards,
Phil.

p.s. do i have to concern about this?
