    DSD codec does not install

    On my system (Win 10 64 bit Pro, dbpoweramp 16.6 64 bit) I cannot install the DSD SACD codec. If I look into the decoder folder (C:\Program Files\dBpoweramp\decoder) the corresponding dll is there but the decoder does not show up in the list of decoders installed (dbpoweramp configuration window) and if I want to load a .dff file into the converter it does not recognize it as an audio file. Any help would be highly appreciated.

    Run dBpoweramp Control Center >> and list the codecs installed, does it show there?

      No, like I already wrote the decoder does not show in the list of installed decoders.

        You installed it to the same location that dBpoweramp is installed? look in:

        C:\Program Files\dBpoweramp\decoder

        You should have DSD SACD.dll and it should be 433KB

            The filesize indicates that it is the 32 bit codec which is installed, you must be getting the 32 bit codec because you have both 64 bit and 32 bit dBpoweramp installed.


            Run this:

            ...also how to do a full reset of dBpoweramp? (if dBpoweramp crashes for some reason) Where does dBpoweramp save its files / settings? It is installed to c:\Program Files\Illustrate\dBpoweramp or c:\Program Files (x86)\Illustrate\dBpoweramp The 64 bit version of dBpoweramp is installed to: c:\Program Files\dBpoweramp It


            Then reinstall dBpoweramp, then DSD codec.
