DSD file folder and FLAC conversion
Beantwortet
Dears,
First of all I'm a bit disappointed about that conversion from DSD to FLAC. I'm quite sure that all of us expect that DSD should be played in their native format, not convert onto 88200/24 bits. Why not higher if device support 24/192 or even more.
Second question, If special DSD folder is chosen for conversion to FLAC, why I can not see other FLAC files, like 96/24, 192/24 which are in the same folder. That means that choosen folder is strictly for DSD conversion and other FLAC files should be moved to another folder ?
I like Node2i about sound quality and about OS,. etc. But here at DSD files are more then step backwards against you competitors,. even in cheaper range of DAC's. Please do something.

Hi Andrej
Our one time conversion of DSD is not dis-similar to the vast majority of DSD Playback over DoP. The difference is we perform the conversion one time rather than every time you play the music. our conversion is to the nearest accurate conversion rate so if you are receiving 24/88.2 then your content is in that range. Most DSD files are 24/48, 24/88.2 or 24/96. 24/192 is needless up sampling and technically distorting the sound.
Other FLAC files in that folder should appear. Please select Settings, Music Library, Reindex Collection. Once the index completes, check your library for the missing music.
If the problems persist, please select Help, Send Support Request so we may view your player log file and help you troubleshoot further.

Tony, I know this is an old post but I couldn't resist commenting on your response.
dsd over DOP is just encapsilating the dsd stream into a pcm container, it only works with dacs that recognize the flag and usually just over USB style DACS, there is no conversion with this method DoP is more akin to a DTS CD.
Now that being said, I would prefer not to transcode my DSD files into any other format, but 24 88.2 is all anybody needs for a reasonable conversion, most people can not tell the difference.
The dsd approach is to do a very low bit rate and a very high sample rate, 1Bit/ 2.8Mhz .
The benifits or lack there of, of keeping DSD in its original form varies from dac to dac and what kind of bass managment and auto speaker correction might be on your reciever/DAC.
Just my two cents hopefully it worth at least that.

I have a Bluesound Node. My master storage is a 4TB HDD and more than half of my library recordings are DSD or High-res. When I play-back my tunes without an exception all are played back as Flac 16 bit 44.1 khz. It is disheartening to see a reduced performance of my system when I run my newly purchased Node in my system. Yamaha's MusicCast which can play up to and including 192khz/32 bit recordings combined with my CX-A5100 Pre-Pro without altering the format of the original source. I can hear a significant increase of sound quality when I play back in its native DSD format.The reason I opted for the Node was 256GB maximum storage limitation of the CX-A5100. Mind you the Node does a good job of indexing the files in a reasonable time frame. Is there a way to avoid this automatic format conversion of the Node, if not, any plans to update the software to allow users to keep the source formats un-altered?
