There aren't many iPad apps for mode 1 only. You can try the LUMIN app, which supports mode 1 only and will play your DSD files. If you are willing to change to mode 0 only, there are some other options but I haven't found any with a user interface that I think is acceptable.

Songbook HD isn't working for these files because the Melco USB-DAC player is advertising that it supports only audio/dsd and audio/x-dsd MIME types for DSD audio. The MIME type of a MinimServer native DSD stream is audio/x-dsf or audio/x-dff, so Songbook complains about this mismatch and refuses to play the file. Twonky sends native DSD streams as audio/dsd, so Songbook is happy to let the files play. In fact, the USB-DAC player is able to play an audio/x-dsf stream, so the workaround is to use a control point that either ignores the mismatch (such as LUMIN) or provides an option to ignore it (such as BubbleUPnP). If Songbook has any user settings, you could look to see whether this option is available.
