- APPLY
- Wait a bit for MPD to restart

If Resampling is set to "disabled" Moode leaves the samples at their original rate.

Hi Grant,

No diff.

You can tell by looking at the Audio Info popup. FLAC 16/44.1 files with either "disabled" or 16/44.1 resampling set will result in the Decode rate = 16/44.1 = Output rate. Also CPU % utilization will be very low indicating resampler disengaged.

Tim

Thanks Tim. Wasnt sure if the resampler was engaged or if as they will be the same it would just ignore it...nice to know

Brilliant, much easier than changing manually for the different resolutions.

Thanks

Hi Tim,

I have been doing some research into trying to setup a wlan static ip address for moode. (Router does not support ip reserve) Can it be done?

Came accross this article http://thepihut.com/blogs/raspberry-...r-raspberry-pi

Would this work? I can access the files using serverauditor from my ipad.

Thanks

Barry

Hi Tim.

Just a quick question. In Alsamixer does the Analogue Playback Boost [dB gain: 0.00, 0.00] to [dB gain: 0.80, 0.80] slider do any filtering or is it just (as it suggests) a boost in the db range?

Thanks
Josie

Hi Josie,

For DAC's based on the PCM5122 chip which includes IQaudIO Pi-DAC+, HifiBerry DAC+ and DAC+ Pro, the two sliders in alsamixer named "Analogue" and "Analogue Playback Boost" are for the analog volume controls on the chip. These controls have only two steps 0 and 100. I forget what the dB equivalents are.

IQaudIO recommends setting both volumes to 100 for their Pi-DAC+ board. HifiBerry recommends setting "Analogue" to 100 and "Analogue Playback Boost" to 0 for their DAC+ boards.

Moode makes these settings automatically during startup for these DAC's.

Regards,
Tim

Ah... righty-ho. Thanks very much.

Hi Tim,

Firstly hello to your good self and everyone else at AOS who have not seen my welcome post.

I have a Iqaudio pi-digiamp. Would this have to be set to software volume control, thus controlling the alsa volume?

Cheers
