Hi,
I am fighting for few weeks to get my Pi to play HD multichannel FLAC files without drops.
I opened a thread
but I can't have any answer for what is the culpride software or hardware.
The only think I know is that there is no passthrought with FLAC files.
If you have an AVR/Amplifier with 5.0 or 5.1 speakers could you test some files in this site 2L.
Choose "Test bench HD audio files" at the upper right hand side and choose
Surround 5.1 FLAC 24BIT/96kHz column.
I mainly use Beethoven: Sonate 32 - Maestoso Tor Espen Aspaas (solo piano)
To download audio files username: 2L and password: 2L is requested.
Then let me know if you have sound drops or not with PAPlayer and DVDplayer. Please post an answer if it's good or not good.
Could you check as well the sample rate displayed by your AVR.
Another point is I think there is a bug but have no confirmation:
Many thanks for your help.

Quote:Playing a file 5.1, 24/96 with DVDplayerCould you do the same and report what your AVR shows as sample rate?
System > Settings > Audio output > output configuration = Fixed
Limit sampling rate = 44.1
then back to
System > Settings > Audio output > output configuration = Best match or Optimized
When playing, sample rate is 44.1
System > Settings > Audio output > output configuration = Fixed
Limit sampling rate = 88.2
then back to
System > Settings > Audio output > output configuration = Best match or Optimized
When playing, sample rate is 88.2
Many thanks for your help.
