Issue playing DSF Multichannel

[noris]

Hello @Miguel_Rode,

I have just had a chance to speak to one of our senior developers regarding your case and they have noted that the bit-depth and bit-rate limit is very likely attributed to the codec on the HDMI itself.

There have been similar reports of Intel HDMI out having these limitations and the dev believes that you are experiencing related behavior. Some users have had luck by rolling back the drivers, but those have been for Intel boards and not AMD such as your case.

Keep in mind that rolling back may carry some risk but you can read the report here and decide if it’s worth the risk or not:

Roon truncates 24 bit to 16 bit [Solved, Intel audio driver]

I’m in the same boat. I just got my NUC7i5 set up and playing multi-channel. All my multi-channel DVD-As have a 96/24 resolution. Some have 192/24 stereo tracks. When I played these I saw Roon truncating the word size to 16 bits. It’s really ludicrous that the Intel driver is limiting the 192 kHz sample rate as my DSD 64, 5.1 tracks are converted to 176/24 and play fine. As @john found old drivers will output 192/24 but Intel is not fixing the current drivers for some reason. It doesn’t seem…

Thanks,
Noris
