Is anybody out there using 3.1 successfully thru the ultrarendu with the mpd/dlna switcher? Unsuccessful here.

 

I have microRendu (not ultra), but working fine for me.

 

What issue are you having?

As with @jhwalker microRendu works beautifully for me.  No experience of the ultra.

 

Edit: Upsampling to DSD256 with Mac.

 

Same, upsampling to DSD256.

I've just released the version 3.2 of Audirvana Plus that brings the ultra high quality SoX upsampling algorithm (iZotope is still selectable):

 

How To use it:

• Go to the Audio Filters page of Audirvana Plus preferences
• Select SoX as the sample rate converter algorithm
• Select one of the forced upsampling options (e.g. power of two, or DSD)

 

Expert settings:

If wished, you can tune the SoX parameters as you can do with iZotope SRC (e.g. bandwidth/cutoff slope, anti-aliasing, phase)

 

BTW, SoX is 2x faster than iZotope. This will help to keep cool some CPUs and their fans silent.

 

Merry Christmas

Damien, I don't recall if we've ever had a definitive answer on this:  does the underlying PCM upsampling code (e.g., iZotope, now SOX) have any effect if you're finally upsampling everything to DSD (in my case, DSD512 to a iFi Micro iDSD)?  If so, any recommendations on what settings to use?
