Pro iDSD & MQA
Some of the best things in life are worth waiting for...
...
Here's the link to the 2.01 FW for our Pro iDSD, enjoy!

That you for your effort, iFi people. A few questions:
^ does this mean that in the TiDAL desktop app, we select all 3 options: "Use Exclusive Mode", "Force volume" and "Passthrough MQA" ?• Playing MQA songs needs to be adjusted to the maximum volume to recognize MQA.
^ seems like quite a struggle, are you talking about the space in the FPGA or some other memory? Just curious. In general it would be easier for us to bear with you if we knew the scope of difficulty of the challenges your are facing here - as i.e. you now have clarified.To make room for the full MQA decoder, the entire audio subsystem was streamlined, optimised and pared down in resource use WITHOUT affecting functionality. The MQA team also worked to maximise the efficiency of their code with hand-written assembler optimisations.
- are there known unresolved bugs in 2.0.1 which were introduced in 2.0 but have not been present in 1.0 ?
- will it be possible to revert back to 1.0 (or whatever the original version is named), after trying 2.0.1? Where could 1.0 be found?
Again, thanks for your effort. I imagine the full complexity of the MQA module could not have been predicted until its full implementation.
