Dear experts, I need to ask for your help and assessment:
So far, I managed to install Roon server on a NAS, where also my music library is located. Music files are led over my router to a microRendu as a Roon endpoint, and finally to Dave Dac. This setup works excellent insofar as I am playing PCM files. The Roon package for QNAP NAS is s special one, it's Roon 1.2, build 157. As I understood it is co-developed and implemented for Synology and QNAP NAS by Chris Rieke.
As DSD Playback is concerned, the developer notes in his manual "DSD playback has not been tested in this configuration, as I have not been able to confirm the kernel supports it [...] ".
The only possibility to influence DSD Playback is shown in the first two screenshots above, showing the respective settings for Roon and the microRendu.
I could not set max. sample rate higher than 352kHz; otherwise Dave shows "no USB connection" and no sound is emitted.
When I play DSD files, DSD256 and DSD64, under these settings 3rd and 4th screen shot show the corresponding Roon diagrams. Dave itself shows 352kHz.
Can I adjust anything better? Could you please tell me your assessment and give me any further hint, what I can do better or is the result regarding these facts OK? Is my system playing DSD via DoP?
I am very sorry for all these questions, but I am really unexperienced in this field. Due to my visual impairment I was forced to go this way, because I could not handle my CD collection any longer with comfort.
Thank you for your kind help,
Jorg
