totaldac D1 server

[GuillaumeB]

Hi
Mr. Brient updated the d1-server manual with a step by step guide to setup iPeng with Tidal.It work flawlessly. Only problem is that the disk image is slightly worse than the MPD only and integration between MAS music and Tidal seems pretty complicate (maybe you should attach everything to an ethernet switch)

Yes I have finally managed to get Tidal working on my totaldac. It turned out that I had a faulty SD card which led to wasting an awful lot of time trying to find/fix a non-existent problem on the network. It is quite tricky to setup as there are so many moving parts (Mysqueezebox, Ipeng, totaldac etc).

The integration is just about ok, it's certainly not as pretty as the Linn Kazoo implementation which is quite impressive actually.

Sound quality-wise I'm not too impressed and I don't know if this is simply because MPD only is just so much better or if there is something I haven't optimised correctly in the Logitech Media Server audio settings... at the moment the sound is a bit muffled and lacking in dynamics like an MP3 perhaps. 

Anyway perhaps if I can improve on the SQ I will get a bit more enthusiastic!
