v3.16.2 Output signal issue when playing 24/192 files
Answered
Issue just started happening, and maybe relevant is that I've just had 3.16.2 installed in my Node 2i .
Whenever I play a 24/192 hi Res file, it is triggering my external Roksan K3 DAC to go a bit crazy. A "feature" of the DAC is that a relay clicks when it starts to receive a signal. That is normal, if slightly frustrating, behaviour for that DAC.
The relay is being set off multiple times per second, then maybe a few seconds where the music plays as normal, then multiple clicks again (sounds a bit like a Geiger counter on the outskirts of Chernobyl!). Here's a video of it happening while a 24/192 file plays (I turned the volume down on my amp so the clicks are audible): https://youtu.be/L28CFkCOrH8
So although the issue manifests in the DAC, it's because of an issue in the output of the Node, perhaps gaps in playback at machine gun type speed. These 24/192 files have all worked fine so far in the 4 months I've had the streamer.
24/96 and lower files all still play perfectly. I've tried the full router reboot option stated in most other threads, has made no difference.
Anyone have any advice please? Is it possible for me to uninstall the last update to see if it then works again? Thanks.

HI Andrew
In the BluOS App, under Audio Settings, please disable Audio Clock Trim on your NODE N130. If problems persist, please select Help, Send Support Request in the App so we may see a copy of the event log and our QA can investigate.

Hi, thanks, I'd already tried that (after reading another post) and it made no difference. Sorry forgot to mention that in my post.
I'll send a support request.
