DSD
|
||||
^^^
|
||||
|
||||
There are three ways to play back DSD (Direct Stream Digital):
|
||||
|
||||
- natively if your output supports it (ALSA only and requires a sound
|
||||
card with native DSD support)
|
||||
- `DSD over PCM <http://dsd-guide.com/dop-open-standard>`_: wrapped
|
||||
inside fake 24 bit PCM samples (ALSA and OSX only and requires an
|
||||
external DAC with DoP support)
|
||||
- for everything else, MPD automatically converts DSD to PCM
|
||||
|
||||
For the last option, the setting ``dsd2pcm_converter`` selects a
|
||||
conversion method. The default is ``float`` which converts to
|
||||
floating point samples. For CPUs with a weak floating point unit
|
||||
(e.g. some ARMs like the one in the Raspberry Pi), it may be faster to
|
||||
use ``integer``, which is an integer-only implementation of the
|
||||
conversion algorithm.
