#Player for flac driver

To DSD playback (including bit-perfect) under Windows, DAC may be connected to an audio player via ASIO driver or DoP protocol.ДЄlso, WASAPI (with DoP) interface may be used to playback (including bit-perfect).ДoP is the special open protocol for coding DSD into a pseudo-PCM audio stream. Such files may be pre-downmixed to stereo offline. But, multichannel files waste the phone memory for all channels instead 2 channels that are actually need to physical listening.

If mobile phone is not capable multichannel playback in earphones, it can downmix it to stereo in real-time. Pre-conversion allows to save battery energy. If sound quality difference between inline and offline conversion is there, you can play pre-convenverted files back. So real-time conversion may have lack of computing resources to implement more accurate algorithm.ДЄlso, 'heavy' algorithms extensively consume battery energy.ДЄlternatively, you can pre-convert DSD files to PCM (FLAC, WAV, etc.) offline. Processing time may impact to sound quality.

Some player software are capable to convert DSD to PCM 'on fly' (in real-time). Mobile phones and many laptops contains ordinary PCM DAC.

In the part the consider how to use computer or mobile phone hardware to playback DSD. Because a mobile device performs a lesser calculation number.ДЄlso pre-downmix, pre-conversion DSD to PCM, pre-downsampling save free space at the hard disk of the mobile device.Д¬an computer and mobile phone play DSD? DAC interfaces Offline conversion of audio files gives a longer battery lifetime. It can cause a lesser time of autonomous work and reduce the response of other (non-player) applications. Real-time playback conversion DSD to PCM on mobile devices consumes additional battery charge and part of the device CPU performance. But each playback can consume big computing resources for resolution conversion and other processing. This mode allows saving time for pre-converting of various audio files to the best sounding mode of DAC. Getting more computing resources for other (not audio player) applications.ДSD and PCM files may be played back with inline (real-time, 'on-fly') altering of audio content: Getting a longer time of autonomous work If file played back on a mobile device in bit-perfect mode or with minimal processing, it allows: Offline pre-downmixed to stereo files allow saving more songs on hard disk. Downmixing is a lossy operation and its sound quality depends on implementation.ДЄlso, extra channels consume free space on the hard disk of the DAP. When DAP plays a multichannel record, it downmixes to 2.0. But some of your records may be multichannel. Many digital audio players (DAP) capable of playback at stereo headphones. Also, it saves electrical energy that is spent on processing. This mode doesn't consume additional computing resources for altering an audio file. With bit-perfect mode, you can playback offline pre-converted audio files (including PCM to DSD). To avoid the track-border artifacts, True Gapless conversion may be used. If the album is converted from an audio format to another one with resampling, it can cause artifacts at track borders. Gapless playback means playback album as a solid (uninterrupted) stream without re-initialization of DAC. When uninterrupted albums (operas, concerts) listen, non-gapless playback can cause clicks at track borders.
