FAQ:

Audio works in Roon, however, no output in other software?
This is due to a limitation with some DAC's, only supporting 32 bit depth output. Please use the web interface to change output bit depth in the required application to 32.

I want to use WiFi connection, how do I disable HotSpot and setup connection?
NB: We highly recommend ethernet connection for a stable audio streaming experience.
To achieve a WiFi connection, you will need to access the terminal (either via SSH or locally using keyboard + monitor):

• Login with username = root , password = dietpi

• Select WiFi option again
• Select Scan, choose your SSID and follow the onscreen prompts to enter credentials
