mpd via HDMI downsamples everything to 48Khz for DSD files. I am trying to find settings for it to at least send 88.2KHz.
You need to use the USB input of your DAC to get DSD.
How do I tell mpd then to reformat the DSD stream to something playable? Or is this just impossible, period? Please put me out of my misery with a final answer!
