XMOS USB DAC detected but not working
Posted: 09 Jul 2013, 17:03
Hi,
I recently switched to linux for almost everything and have been using Porteus. I would like to thank everyone who maintains it. Works great immediately for just about everything.
But I'm having issues getting my USB DAC to work.
It is a iBasso D7. This works well with my wooden headphones. Goes up to 192 KHz 24 bit on USB
This uses an XMOS chip and, on windows, standard Theyscon audio drivers (TUBSAudio_Driver). http://www.ibasso.com/en/download/index.asp
Porteus detects it as an audio card but I receive errors trying to send data to it. What do I need to install and how do I need to go about doing it? I know people in various linux distributions have solved this issue years ago after searching but I... am a Newbie...
Hopefully I can figure out how to make a package to load from a flash drive once I figure out what exactly needs to run. Also, on the same topic, I need to replace foobar to listen to .flac, .tak, and .ape files and .cue files. I have no idea what to use, perhaps the default audio program? I understand it is already bit to bit perfect, but I have no idea how to setup flac and tak encoding on it.
Any ideas? Can programs be borrowed from other distributions?
(Next on the list: find a replacement for Zoom Player and its codec support, since it runs faster than VLC for high resolution mkv with subtitles, and figure out how to make a package to install TexMacs.)
