SACD, DSD, DSF support
Good day, I was trying to play DSD, DSF (SACD) files via AlbumPlayer2111 x64 and it seems to not be supported (i use a fostex asio driver and a foobar2000 asio driver and both work but not for HDMI audio while FlexASIO does work for that), I also went to the FAQ to see if something about it was stated there but i couldn't find anything for that subject. Is it not supported and will it be supported some day? If it is supported and for some reason i didn't manage to make it work i am attaching my log files to see if there is anything to do about it. One log file while working with flac and the other log file when i couldnt play the SACD format. Thanks in advance for your help.

You are correct, FlexASIO does not support DSD. This is mostly because PortAudio itself doesn't support DSD, which in turn is mostly because no Windows audio APIs support DSD, as far as I know. As a workaround, it might be possible to pass DSD disguised as PCM through FlexASIO, if the pipeline is set up just right so that the data is passed through in a bit-perfect fashion.
In any case, I can't really help you there because I'm not familiar with the particulars of DSD playback, and quite frankly, I don't intend to spend any of my time supporting that particular use case. You're welcome to do your own investigation and/or patches if you'd like (but know it's unlikely I would merge them).
