Convert WavPack to DSD

Post by atoszmester »

Hello,

I have many DSD128 (.dsf) files, if I convert them to Lossless WavPack (DSD, no PCM), everything is OK.
But if I want to convert it back, I get an error message: There were some errors while processing. Press OK to go to the log tab.
There it is that: SACD open failed for file.
But I switch at channels from automatic to stereo, then the conversion will be successful.
My other settings at Codec: DSD128 Default, output file extension: DSF

I would like to ask, why the Automatic setting not good?

BR,
Attila

Normally you would need to extract, not encode to get the original DSD back, but that is not currently implemented.

Thanks for the reply!
I tried it first (extract), but I gave an error message, but now I know why. ;)

Is there a chance that this feature will be included?
