Is there a way with standard minimstreamer or minimserver/ffmpeg combination to downsample DSD/256 to DSD/128?

My DAC does not support DSD/256...

Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately FFmpeg doesn't provide this capabilty. You would need to use an offline converter.

Okay thanks, next year I will have the DirecStream MKII which will support DSD/256...

But would it be possible to downlsample to DXD?

You should be able to do this by setting stream.transcode to

dsf(>128):wav24;352

The sound quality probably won't be as good as playing a DSD file natively.

If I make that setting it returns:
