Question about DSD/DSF changes in Jan2023 update

[Maxpower]

Hi - I was reading the release notes for 'dBpoweramp R2022 Release R2023-01-20'

I could not understand the meaning of this bullet point "DSD (DSF) supports files with ID3 chunk at start of the file (which breaks the DSF specification), also can show the positions of the chunks if...

I am digitizing my 500+ albums and have found that DSD ripping sounds the best to my ears. I have also found that converting the DSD files to 24 bit 192 wav also sound great, better than flac, better than any other lossless.

I would like to convert my DSD rips to WAV so my portable DAP...

Just posting this here as it might help other people.

I had an album that was in WavPack format (.wv) files, and installed the WavPack codec from Codec Central.
However, dBpoweramp was unable to convert any of them with the following error:

Error converting to <target

Hello.

I tried ripping several CDs in the DSD128 format with the latest version of CDripper (R17 trial), but all failed.

All are displayed as errors.

I was able to rip with Flac so there is no problem with the CDs.


Please tell me how to rip...

Hi -

I have about 115 DSD albums I want to convert to 44/16 flac, and normalize each album to 0db.

The first part is easy, the second part I'm having trouble.

I could just add 6db to each album, but this causes clipping or some albums are too low.

Hello,

Does anyone know how to edit DSF Tags on MacOS? I am using Release 16.1 (Registered Reference). DSD appears under codecs installed but the files don't seem to be supported by dBpoweramp.

Thanks

When converting a DSD/DSF file to flac, DBpoweramp downsamples the flac file to - for example 24/192, whatever setting you have under the advanced options.
My question is: does it do upsampling when the original DSD files has a lower frequency? In other words, does it upsample a hypothetically...

I have no problem playing DSD64 via DoP, but DSD128 and 256 can't be played. Is there any setting I am missing or it just support up to DSD64 for the time being?

Hi. I've recently installed the full version of Asset on my Qnap to centralise my music serving. At the moment this is the only 'illustrate' program I have as I rip my CDs on a naim HDXssd. The problem is that DSD albums are not being recognised. To check the 'watch' folder I dropped a flac album...

Just downloaded R4.5 version as registered user. Description of version shows DSD support, but after launch Asset can.t see any of my DSF64 files, though they are tagged properly. Am I doing something wrong or there's no DSD support?

dbpoweramp v.14.4 always failed converting DSD files in DSF format to WAV.
The conversion error report says: Unable to load decoder for file type '.dsf', codec not installed? Visit 'Codec Central'.
I went to Codec Central but couldn't find the related codec. Does dbpoweramp supports DSD...

Team, a company named dSC recently published a specification for direct
dsd playback via existing pcm pipe line. This is not the same as converting the
dsd data to pcm as the original dsd data is maintained for playback at the dac.
Please read on to understand what they proposed!...

Hello, there are a few companies providing dsdiff and dsf downloads. There are some hand held recorders that will record to these formats as well. Can you provide a way to convert these by adding a new codec?

Thank you in advance!
