The screenshots look good to me.

iPeng is just giving you the option to switch to Roon, it is not asking you to do it.

Glad I could help.

Like I say, more maybe to come with the update to the 3.1 software soon. Not long now.

Yes but even when I switch the SQ improvement is retained which is really strange. Squeeze is selected in player/server so no sure where Roon comes into the mix.Thats what's confusing me a little. Hopefully 3.1 will bring other options. Ill keep a eye here as im sure owner will post. To be honest im learning as I go and not the most experienced with it all but I know what my ears hear

Squeeze will let you use Tidal and Qobuz. Once you upgrade 705/768 as well. With 2.8 on my EX I have Squeeze - 705/768 which works well for PGGB. MPD direct is a bit better imho. Still loving Roon / Hqplayer for convenience.

So has anybody received the 3.1 update yet?

I was wondering as well. I think I’ve checked at least once a day over the last couple weeks to see if the update was available.

That’s my understanding. Sorry to cause you to start checking there regularly.

Ha ha No problem.

Well this is the ‘end of July’.

Things normally do slip so hopefully there will be an update at the ‘start of August’.

 

[Triode User]

There have been a couple of responses on the Antipodes chat room that make me think that the 3.1 update is maybe August sometime, one yesterday saying 'in the next few weeks'.

I guess we all will prefer it to be as best sorted as possible rather than released too early.

For anyone interested in my original post re what players you all use, K50 can run multiple cores at the same time hence why I was still seeing Roon as player but Squeeze selected. A core needs to be deselected rather that just switching to another core. Thanks

Good tip.

I uninstall all apps that I am not using to make sure I don’t have them running by mistake.

This is probably a very dumb question....but hey, if I dont ask im not going to know lol.....

Can the P1 rip the stereo SACD layer from an SACD?

Extremely unlikely.

These guys managed to figure it out on their own, though we're talking about a company with 400 employees

The novelty also supports the SACD RIP function, when the contents of the disk are copied to a USB flash drive. However, according to Wadax, this feature is intended for research purposes and is not available as standard. To enable it, you must enter a special service code.

In other words, maybe it ain't all that surprising if they're actually having access to certain things that other rivals (even Taiko Audio) could only dream of. All music servers out there should be only as good as what general-purpose CPUs could actually achieve, while the possibilities of ASICs should be virtually unlimited IMHO.

Of course they might have simply obtained the SDK from MediaTek as I mentioned below and then the rest was history
