Trouble with Mamboberry Dac and Kali Reclocker

Postby rich110 » 18 Aug 2019, 07:53

Hi,
After moving away from Runeaudio several years ago to use Volumio and later Moode, I have returned to Rune because of it's active support, ease and speed of use and simple interface.

Since I last used Rune I've upgraded my setup to include a Rpi3B, Kali Reclocker and Mamboberry LS DAC+.

I have Runeaudio loaded and configured (extended partition, updated MPD via addons plugin, etc) but I can't seem to get any audio to output. I am wondering if it has something to do with my audio settings.

From reading the forums, I believe that the Mamboberry LS DAC+ is supported via the 'Hifiberry DAC' selection under Rune 'Settings' tab. I have done this and then selected 'Hifiberry DAC (I2C)' under the MPD 'Audio output interface' - but I get no sound when playing tracks.

Are these DAC settings still correct for Rune 0.5?

I am running the following version:
Ver. 0.5 build janui-20180903-10
Linux version 4.14.34-1-ARCH (alarm@alarmpi) (gcc version 7.3.1 20180312 (GCC)) #1


A copy of my debug after a clean reboot and trying to play a flac file is .

Any help would be appreciated.

cheers,
Rich

Hi janui,
Thanks for the reply....
If what you say is true, then I'm a little disappointed (with myself)....
I bought the combination of Kali Reclocker and Mamboberry LS DAC based on several articles I'd read saying they worked well together. See the links here:
https://collybia.com/soundcheck-hamburg ... guess-won/ (half-way down the page)
https://volumio.org/allo-kali-i2s-reclo ... mechanger/ (again, about half-way down the page)

I'm pretty disappointed to find out the the combined benefit of the Reclocker and the DAC are in actual fact not able to be utilised in this combination.
Either way, I'll try your suggestion of the "Allo DAC" setting and see how it goes.

Cheers,
Rich

Hi janui,
Thanks again...

Unfortunately, "Hifiberry Dac Plus" setting doesn't work. If I use this setting then I get no option in the MPD Config > Audio Input Interface except 'RPi Analogue Out' and 'RPi HDMI Out' - no matter how many times I reboot the system.

If I choose the plain "Hifiberry DAC" option, I get the "Hifiberry DAC I2S" option in the MPD Config > Audio Input Interface section but no sound.
I think I may need to return to moOde Audio.
Cheers,
Rich
