Updated conversion tool for DSD files conversion with DSD256 DoP support

dsf2flac.dop.dsd256

Updated conversion tool for DSD files

This tool is a fork from https://code.google.com/archive/p/dsf2flac/

AudioFile.h is a modified version from https://github.com/adamstark/AudioFile

I wish many thanks to all the authors involved in such tool. For me this is the only free way to play DSD256 files on my dac without getting mad.

Support conversion from dsf or dff to wav files via DoP. DSD256 is supported by converting source dsf or dff to a DoP stream encapsulated in a 2 channels wav file 705600hz, 24 bit as flac actually does not support sample rates above 655350.

Examples

FFmpeg ADI-2 DAC pipe example

dsf2flac -d -w -i "pathtofile" -o - | ffmpeg -i - -c pcm_s32le -f alsa iec958:CARD=DAC57750571,DEV=0

Well tested up to DSD256 dsf to DoP wav conversion with rme ADI 2 DAC.

The list of available alsa device names can be obtained with alsa command: aplay -L

Replace everything after the ffmpeg -f parameter with your alsa device name to try it out with your DAC.

Please post an executable

Hello,
this program would be great for my sanity too if I could compile it easily. On Ubuntu, using cmake 3.19.1 (20.04) or 3.13.4 (16.04) I get problems relating to Boost and flac libraries.
Could you please post a compiled executable to save us this grief? I only a have a few DSD256's and no time since I am caring for a wife with brain cancer.
This woudl be greatly appreciated, Thank you so much

fstream_plus.h:63:20: error: ‘streampos’ has not been declared

fstream_plus.h is missing a "using namespace std;" statement at the top. With that namespace referenced, it builds wonderfully well with GCC 11 :)
