24/96KHz on Picoreplayer not working
I have been using Picoreplayer 3.11-audio version with my RPI3 and a Digi+ feeding via optical to my Caiman SEG DAC, producing great sounds. Most of my music is FLAC ripped from my CDs but I recently download a 24-bit 96KHz album from HDTracks only to be dismayed that it appears to play but there is no sound. The PCP web-pages shows everything is working. But then anything else I play in the Picoreplayer then does the same until I reboot it. The same files play happily through my SBTouch into the SEG via optical. Both are streaming via WiFi.
In theory, it all should work. The Digi+ should support up to 24/192 (that doesn't work either) and I know other people have used 96KHz (and higher) with the Picoreplayer. I have tried other 24/96KHz tracks with the same result. As a test I converted a track to 24/48KHz and it plays fine, so it appears to be due to the sampling frequency rather than the bit depth.
I have tried the latest Picoreplayer 3.20beta5 with the same result. The audio version does not work with WiFi (which is a shame, I hope they fix this).
I have searched various fora without success. Is there some hidden setting in Picoreplayer or the Config.txt file to get higher rates to work?
