Quote:It's interesting what software (and different configurations/tweaks) can do to bring out that extra resolution. I honestly thought this is BS before, but now I'm doing this, and sharing it with everyone else..
Indeed! In the quest for my favorite music player I can't tell you how many times I've heard the case for "1s and 0s are all the same". I guess that's true if you're listening through your TV

Anyway, I've done a lot more reading about upmpdcli and now I'm a lot more confused so I might have to wait for someone else to figure it out. I did find what seems to be the likely answer to the upmpdcli problem but I'm not sure about the proper way to implement it. I'll probably do some trial and error testing if I get time and if I fudge things up too bad I can always reinstall

Here's some info that seems to be relevant:
Quote:Procedure:
Create and edit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/upmpdcli.listand add the following lines, depending on your system.
Please note that the links changed in may 2018. The old links still work for now, but they will go away at some point, please update your sources file if you have an old one.Then install the packages. Except for upmpdcli itself, all the packages are independant, only install what you need !:
- Raspbian Jessie:
deb http://www.lesbonscomptes.com/upmpdcli/d.../raspbian/ jessie main
- deb-src http://www.lesbonscomptes.com/upmpdcli/d.../raspbian/ jessie main
- Raspbian Stretch AND other armhf Debian (see note below):
- deb http://www.lesbonscomptes.com/upmpdcli/d.../raspbian/ stretch main
- deb src http://www.lesbonscomptes.com/upmpdcli/d.../raspbian/ stretch main
- Debian Jessie:
deb http://www.lesbonscomptes.com/upmpdcli/d...ds/debian/ jessie main
- deb-src http://www.lesbonscomptes.com/upmpdcli/d...ds/debian/ jessie main
- Non-ARM Debian Stretch:
deb http://www.lesbonscomptes.com/upmpdcli/d...ds/debian/ stretch main
- deb-src http://www.lesbonscomptes.com/upmpdcli/d...ds/debian/ stretch main
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install upmpdcli
# Optional streaming services
sudo apt-get install upmpdcli-qobuz
sudo apt-get install upmpdcli-gmusic
sudo apt-get install upmpdcli-tidal
# Optional Songcast gateway
sudo apt-get install sc2mpd
# Optional Songcast Receiver control web interface
sudo apt-get install scweb
Note: it seems that the incompatibilies which existed between the ARM Debian and Raspbian distributions are gone with Stretch (Debian 9). If you are running a Debian-based release (such as OSMC) on armhf (e.g. on a Raspberry pi), please give the Raspbian Stretch repository a try. I'd be interested to hear about successes / failures: [email protected]
The last paragraph might hold the answer but as I said, I have zero experience in this stuff.
