Stream audio to USB port and use external USB DAC

<< < (2/2)

GodEater:
It depends what you mean by "USB out". USB covers a whole range of things. Currently Rockbox only implements Mass Storage over USB - nothing else.

gevaerts:
As far as I know the ipods don't have the necesary wiring for USB host (which is what you need for this). The portalplayer PP502x SoCs are supposed to have host support, but I'm not aware of any PP502x player that actually can do it.

The only players  where I'm confident about being able to get this working are the European H300, the Gigabeat S, and the Gigabeat F with dock. It may also be possible on some of the iAudios, but we have no documentation about the USB host controller in them.

Multiplex:
Another way of using an external DAC woul dbe to get one of the very few players that can output digitally - the iRiver H100 series has optical output and I think one other has a digital but i can't remember which.

44.1kHz and 16bit still though.
