I would strongly recommend FLAC containers which produce smaller file sizes which from a streaming view might be easier to handle than AIFF equivalents. ![]() This might have been linked to Foobar's conversion/packing process but could also relate to file size. I also found original DFF files to be more stable than their DoP versions. Depending on its container, a DSD album could require 3-4GB of storage which could become relevant. One issue is that DoP file sizes slightly exceed that of their DFF originals. The Lumin obviously detects the flags which announce DoP content to automatically switch to native DSD playback mode. Now it becomes child's play to tag your DSD files through your usual metadata editor and DoP files should work in any UPnP server which supports these common lossless formats. Such DoP files can be written in any lossless format like WAV, AIFF, ALAC or FLAC. This modification adds the extra convert to DSD over PCM option and creates 24/176.4 DoP files packing native DSD. Thanks to a modification of its SACD plugin, Foobar 2000 can tag such files. Again, the Lumin can natively play back DFF and DSD files. It's a new bitstream format that packs DSD inside a PCM container and simply flags the PCM file as containing DSD so any enabled D/A converter knows what to do with it. Another solution is changing the original file’s DNA by creating a DoP file.ĭoP stands for DSD over PCM. It's also possible to create a specific DSD folder within the NAS tree and browse this folder through the Kinsky app each time you want to play a DSD file. Other control points like Kinsky will recognize DFF/DSF files through Minimserver and display the cover art if a jpg file has been included in the folder. This is a twice-valid concern with the Lumin app’s exclusive tag browsing. The most currently relevant issue about the DFF/DSF format resides with its limited tag abilities though DSF seems more open than DFF (J.River for instance appears capable to tag the former).
