Same computer, hqplayer 4.17 but using opencore bootloader and running macOS 10.15 sinc filters all send DSD 256 rates to the dac. So it appears to be isolated to the windows version.
I tried the 4 sinc filters in 4.16.2 in windows and they are also not playing at 256 rate limit set in prefs. All others in 4.16.2 are ok.

Had same on Win11. Switched therefore to Ubuntu with Sync-M. Did not drill further into this.
@jussi_laako Here I realized that different behaviour of Win and UbuntuâŠ
I A-Bâd them closely last night in a great listening session and in my system to my ear, the new Poly-sinc high-rez lp wins the day by a small margin. I was an ext2 and 3 user. Great addition, Jussi!

I have just adopted the poly-sinc-gauss -hires-mp filter and am sure this new addition has taken HQPlayer to another level.

poly-sinc-long-ip + DSD5EC -> DSD1024
Initialization time is roughly 15 minutes. Result is amazing. Worth to wait!
This combo consumed more than 600 watts of power. The true endgame-boss-level monster filter!
The GPU sucked more than 300 watts of powerâŠ

Same result with 4.17.1. Using sinc filters, any 48k based rates are not reaching the max set rate of DSD256x48.

Strange, and I was just testing this today and didnât find issuesâŠ
This is on Windows?
Which are the DACs that have ASIO drivers that support native DSD at 48k multiple rates? I donât have a clear picture on this front.
Tried with little Cambridge DacMagic 200. (DSD512x48 is whisteling because of ES.) Guess Gustard (U12, X12) can do the same but did only use with Mac and Pi so far. Using Pi NAA OS I get DSD256x48 from the Gustards! Not only DSD128x48.
+++ah, at Cambridge you need to push the filter button at device for x48. Hope they will fix this with fw update.

With NAA running on Linux you donât go through ASIO drivers. Many ASIO drivers limit DSD support to multiples of 44.1k.

Cambridge with 512x48 was only possible with Windows Asio. However whisteling. (and required push of the filter button for 48)

There are some details by Brian further down in this thread:
On Monday, February 28, Roon will be updated to take advantage of the advanced features offered in HQPlayer 4.x. Updating our implementation to support the HQPlayer 4 API will help to resolve a number of issues that our customers have been reporting.
What should you do?
In conjunction with Signalyst we have worked to improve the overall user experience in Roonâs HQ Player integration. As such, version 4.16.2+ of HQPlayer Desktop, or version 4.29.3+ of HQPlayer Embedded, will be required once tâŠ

What are the diffs between the Sinc L variants?
Jussi made a short statement at AudiophileâŠLooking for the linkâŠ
I can run it with ADSM7EC2 now. Believe this was not possible with my stuff before.
