JPLAY 5.0 released - 已更新至5.0b

舊用戶應該收到email download  新的upgrade 版本。

.
有新增加的 dual-pc streamer mode，也支持更多的播放器，
全面支持ASIO。
Forum 上的用戶對beta版本已經贊不絕口，正式版本推出又怎能不試！
.
這個版本中新加的dual-pc 模式，需要兩台PC才可以setup.
其中一個作為Control PC 而另一台就是 Audio PC。
JRIVER 就是在 Control PC 上跑，然後透過 network  把music file  串流到 Audio PC。
試了數天的 dual-pc Setup 下，背景噪音比單一台PC 的 setup 大幅進步。
低音也比較有層次。
而且在dual-pc mode setup 中，在hibernate mode 裡面也可隨時可把音樂停下來。再選擇其他歌曲。再不須要像4.3那樣要reboot 或者是抽出usb device。方便很多了。
.
在dual-pc mode 下面也應該可支援 JRIVER 的 DSP 功能。
總括來説dual-pc mode 不單在音質上完勝single PC mode，使用上也更加貼心。

絕對推薦dual-pc mode！

5.0 也upgrade 至5.0a ，要reply email 去JPLAY 問他們把 JPLAY 5.0a  的download link 發回來。

5.0b
What's new:

- 64bit ASIO JPLAYDriver (supporting 64bit players e.g. Foobar ASIO 64bit mode)
- 64bit JPLAYmini: max Cache increased to 5GB
- SQ improvements from internal 5a release
- bugfixes (JPLAYSettings would not open on some systems).

setup 好似方便咗。

服務真主動, 正

setting 多左，即係好多野要自已入登陸檔set.
之前4.2用 xtream 冇問題。
v5 用xtream開頭會冇左聲一秒，發現要響packet size set 4先得！
另外播192要用buffer192--4 samples

好似無咗headless mode，
試緊dual-pc streamer mode.

Hi Ching,

Can you use jplay 5.0 to play DSD under JRiver? It seems only can use Jplay under ASIO mode, however, cannot run DSD file.

appletim c-hing,
我可以用ASIO播DSD file，請留意 Bitstreaming 要選擇 DSD 而唔 係 DoP
Use JRiver as usual. For DSD support go to ‘Playback Options -> ‘Bitstreaming’ -> ‘Custom’ and choose ‘DSD’

Hi K500a Ching,

Tks! After changing DSD and ok now, however, I need to switch to KS mode to play DSD file, and switch back to ASIO mode to play non-DSD file. In previous version, I can switch under same play mode, do you know why?

appletim Ching,
The JRiver setting and the JPlay setting are separated.
At the JRiver side, I followed the setting in the manual:
http://jplay.eu/manual/
‘Output mode’ to ASIO
‘Output mode settings…’ and select ‘JPLAY Driver’
‘Bitstreaming’ -> ‘Custom’ and choose ‘DSD’
.
On the JPlay side,   I need to click the JPLAYsettings and select the the dac shipped DSD compatible driver in 'Playing via'.
.
Hope this help.

I did install the foobar2000 and it worked for the DSD.
the link below has more clear steps :
http://www.exasound.com/Blog/tab ... -exaSound-DACs.aspx
but at step 20 select the JPLAY driver instead of the exaSound ASIO (2ch) driver:
Select the  JPLAY driver; Select the ASIO Native DSD Playback Method as in the JPLAY manual:
http://jplay.eu/manual/

I had follow all steps in Jplay manual, but still cannot play DSD thr foobar.
I can play the DSD files only in Jplaymin. very depressive.

In JPLAY manual, it did not mention about the ASIO driver but you must have it to complete the installation. It is necessary to  download the official ASIO output plug-in for Foobar2000 from http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_out_asio.  
.
The JPLAY is not comprehensive so I followed the steps below:
http://www.exasound.com/Blog/tab ... -exaSound-DACs.aspx
.
In addition, it is necessary to click the JPLAYsettings and select the the DSD compatible driver shipped with DAC in 'Playing via' option.

5.0a 也出了。

k500a

5.0a sounds better than 5.0 at every aspects. absolutely recommended.

alex123

5.0a 幾時出，昨晚都未收到喎。
