| 1 | | The problem above is a problem with audacious. The sizzling and rustling sound is only in audacious. |
| 2 | | |
| 3 | | "The sound is intermittent, as if in a pause-play loop. Problem playing DSD (.dsf) files with ffplay.exe." |
| 4 | | |
| 5 | | Here's the real problem: |
| 6 | | |
| 7 | | It loops by doing pause and play. works like pause-play-pause-play-pause-play...... But it doesn't pause and play. It just pauses as if it is in a pause play loop and the sound is intermittent. |
| 8 | | I wanted to listen to the Ed Sheeran Equals 2021 album. I played it. It worked. A dsf file is ~2GB, B dsf file is ~1.9GB. |

| 15 | | Screencast of a player that works like a pause-play loop, but doesn't pause, plays at 0.5x speed even though it runs at 1x speed: |

| 17 | | |
| 18 | | I have a similar problem with ffmpeg's ffplay.exe. |
| 19 | | But the pause-play cycle is faster. |
| 20 | | Intermittent sound with ffplay command: |

| 23 | | I downloaded yuri_korzunov-through-moon_ring-128fs.dsf from [https://samplerateconverter.com/free-audio-downloads] and the same problem persists. |
| 24 | | |
| 25 | | This file also has a scratchy and rustling sound in audacious. |
| 26 | | audacity won't import, “Failed to open file. File type is invalid.” and ”Audacity failed to recognize file type ....... Try installing FFmpeg. For uncompressed files, try File > Import > Raw Data.” |
| 27 | | I selected raw data because it couldn't import. I clicked OK. I checked the options, no DSD. I clicked Detect and it detected Unsigned 8-bit PCM, 44.1kHz. I clicked OK. Imported it. Played it. It's scratchy and raspy. |
| 28 | | DeaDBeaF can't play it at all, it gives an error. |
| 29 | | foobar2000, MPC-HC plays fine. |
| 30 | | This also applies to ed sheeran dsf |
| 31 | | |
| 32 | | I also added my music folder by going to Settings > Add New Folder. It doesn't see the .dsf files and .cue file inside the Ed Sheeran - = (Equals) (2021) folder. It does not add it to albums. |
| 33 | | |
| 34 | | To run .dsf files, right click on the file > open with > choose another application > choose an application on your computer > C:\Users*******\AppData\Local\Programs\Harmonoid > harmonoid.exe > OK |
| 35 | | and you can play it. |
| 36 | | |
| 37 | | Can I also ask why the harmonoid folder is in AppData? |
| 38 | | |
| 39 | | Platform |
| 40 | | |
| 41 | | OS: Windows 11 Pro 24H2 |
| 42 | | |
| 43 | | This intermittent playback problem occurs in harmonoid and ffplay.exe. |
| 44 | | |
| 45 | | It does not happen with foobar2000, MPC-HC, MPC-BE, haruna (kde's software), VuPlayer, mpv, Hi-Res Audio Player (Sony's software). |
| 46 | | |
| 47 | | Windows Media Player legacy, New Media Player(Windows's), VLC, Elisa (kde's software), Clementine, DeadBeef don't play. |
| 48 | | |
| 49 | | audacious in WSL Almalinux doesn't play. |
| 50 | | |
| 51 | | audacious in Windows plays scratchy and wheezy, not intermittent. |
| 52 | | |
| 53 | | strawberry in WSL Almalinux plays. |
