Hi Geoff, does Kodi support Qobuz? I'm asking because in Kodi's forum I read that it doesn't anymore, but maybe it has been rectified and it was old info. Thanks

I believe that Pink Faun Streamer uses a version of AudioLinux, so you could contact the developer (Piero aka @hifi25nl) to help you out.

Hi @Miska, do you have Merging Hapi? What filter/modulator for best results do you suggest for it?

Hopefully @Miska will confirm either way, however, I suppose that only during this WE, if you insert the upgrade discount coupon, it will give you 25% discount. If you don't see it confirmed in the change of price, you don't go through with the order. ...unless you can insert more than one coupon. Then, you also insert "black20". I am sure that you can manage with one of the two options!

I was initially confused like both of you. I think he means that, given that you get 20% coupon discount if you upgrade from v3 to v4, during Black Friday WE you will get an extra 5% discount for a total of 25%. :)

Better ask Miska that. :) Anyhow, I think that is the discount offered previously.

Hi @MiskaAre you going to offer Black Friday discount this weekend? 15% coupon?

In general with Tidal Connect you can use Tidal app as a simple library catalog and send audio stream directly to a device, bypassing software decode from the app. I believe that Spotify has made available something similar too - Spotify Connect. I hope things open up with Tidal...Qobuz would be even better.

Have you also looked into the recent "Tidal Connect"?!

Coupon discount is 20%

On your NAS you probably have some benchmark apps. If you use them during playback, you can see if there is a spike on CPU/Ethernet/Disk drive and what service on your NAS may create a problem... sometimes it may be due to a NAS system upgrade. I followed up a similar issue with Roon and Synology support and in the end I had to reinstall Roon.

The new Ravenna driver version has solved the bug in playback and it seems to work with HQPlayer.

Re. Rasp 4, apparently they all have a design defect that prevents electric supply from USB Type C cables. Co-founder, Eben Upton, has said that it will be fixed in the next board releases. - Source -

You can try removing all other ASIO drivers, if you have them in your PC, and reinstall Holo's.

Unfortunately, these "passive" CPU heat sink are meant for servers only where there is always a powerful cooling system blowing across the MB. Notice how the heat sinks are designed to receive air from one side only. Better go for Noctua.
