Thanks for the update, but according to this thread it seems that PS Audio expects “interim improvement release ready at month’s end” as of 4 days ago:
Previous discussions within this forum:
Initially, I found with just cross-feed enabled, nearly constant dropouts playing Tidal MQA plus any DSP. Tried a simple single-band PEQ, same. I have no other DSP enabled, no upsampling or convolution. No changed in reported CPU utilization.
Rebooted DS/BridgeII, problem remains. If I turned off DSP, no dropouts.
DS/BridgeII up to date. Up to date ROCK on generic PC that have never given me any issues.
Thanks for your assistance
Aloha,
The PS Audio DirectStream Junior is a Roon ready device. Using its Network Bridge II, if I turn off the Roon DSP engine, the Tidal MQA signal is passed on to the DSJ like normal and plays well.
I much prefer to use the Roon DSP engine. When I play Tidal MQA over The Bridge (ethernet) post the 1.5 update, the DSJ shows that its receiving the MQA signal, but there are a number of issues.
Either no sound comes out, or its garbled, or it plays for 20 seconds and then no sound comes out.
