Only Transcode Higher Rated Music

[simoncn]

There has been some misunderstanding. I have not said that MinimServer plays DSD64 files as WAV. You have two options for playing DSD files:

1) Leave stream.transcode empty. This plays all DSD files in their original untranscoded format.

2) Add a transcoding option to stream.transcode. For DSD files (of any resolution), this option must be set to transcode from DSD to WAV. It cannot be set to transcode from DSD128 to DSD64 (for example).

To transcode all DSD files of higher resolution than DSD64 to WAV 24/176, you can set stream.transcode to:

dsf(>64):wav24;176

If your player can play 32/352 PCM files, you could use the following setting:

dsf(>64):wav32;352

Choosing a suitable WAV resolution for this setting will enable you to play your DSD128 and higher files but it is likely you will notice a reduction in sound quality.
