So now I got most my car audio project working, but somehow the Hi-Fi berry DAC 2 stopped working. On bootup the green light on it would light every time. I read if you disable restart and re-enable it will work, but that didnāt fix it. Itās very picky in which DAC option I choose in app, so I pick the first hi-fi DAC on the list, and it was fine. I tried searching my problem but a lot of DAC threads didnāt seem to have an answer. I will try plugging it back inside the house, because it might be a power issue.
*Update - Tried powering on the Pi in the house, and the DAC still wonāt power on. Tried turning off I2S or whatās it called and reboot, then turned it on, still no power, is there a script I need? I normally just select Hifi berry DAC (first hifi option) and it turns on.
Did a little voltmeter work and tried to see any spikes or drops on pin 2 and 4 grounded to pin 6. they stayed 5v during the whole boot. However, I noticed now as I load a DAC profile it will turn on, but only up to the Volumio chime, after that it shuts off. Also, I can choose just DAC, DAC plus, or DAC + Pro so far they all power the DAC on. Any idea which one Iām supposed to use?
I also checked the EEPROM setting in the config.txt and it was already coded properly.
v2 isnāt supported any more so ā¦
yes it shows there but does it show in volumio?
if you comment it out the part force_eeprom_read=0 it should be there.
but i think you will still have a asla problem.
i think you could get the latest version of v2 still some where i will look 4 you.
Well, as long as Iām connected over hotspot I see my profile, but Iām not sure what you mean by seeing the DAC in volumio, I see lots of hifi DACās to load. Oh Iām supposed to remove the EEPROM line? I saw it in there and thought I was supposed to leave it. Lemme go change that. Ok thanks!
not remove it just comment it out so that it wonāt load for test.
this is a guess so try it maybe it will helpā¦
your dac should be this one āDAC plusā
uhm iām still looking in posts to find any help ā¦ i think you can take the comment oway.
all i can find is or switch back to v2 or use HifiberryOS.
Ok, If I have to buy a different DAC thatās ok, but thenā¦at that point I may have to upgrade my Pi anyway, I just donāt know how I had it all working before. Unless it was never really stable? because I only played music from it for about a day probably.
