Rock64 DAC configuration notes
show

Rock64 supports HDMI, 3.5" headphone jack, I2S (with the Rock64 ES9023 POT) and S/PDIF
For headphone jack, select “I2S” from the list of playback options.
Note: neither POT nor headphone have hardware volume control, please use “software mixer” to control the volume from the UI.
S/PDIF can be obtained in two ways (either or)

  • the Optical/Toslink or Coax port on the ES9023 POT
  • Pin 13 on the 20-Pin header (Coax, add a 100Ohm resistor for safety). See rest of the pinout for GND.

Gave it a try today. Works like a charm. UI is very snappy. Spotify plugin works. Many thanks for your work. Beer is on its way!
Regards,

I found something, which might be an issue. I was playing a track (girl from ipanema) from the media server. While the song was playing, I selected an album from spotify. While the first song of that album was playing, I selected a track from the mediaserver. The song from spotify kept playing, but the player line at the bottom was suddenly showing “girl from ipanema” again and i got a red error box saying something about alsa not having permission. When the track from spotify stopped, volumio started playing the previously neglected song.

That seems to be a Volumio core issue, nothing related to the Rock64 port.

New version 3.212 is available.
Please update via OTA (test mode required) or using the download link in the opening post.

I wanted to try the new version 3 on my TV box. But unlike version 2, it was installed, but did not work. More precisely, the system starts, loads a bunch of everything. But the volume access point does not appear at the end, and accordingly I cannot log in and cannot configure anything. Sorry, maybe later I’ll try more recent versions. In general, flashing my TV box is a very long task - you won’t try every day.

My Rock64 support has been discontinued, sorry.
