connected a dac to my server over usb, and it worked right out of the box

current setup:

openbsd -- usb dac -- amp -- speakers
openbsd -- hdmi tv
next up: make everything more user-friendly or teach my family how to use the command line ;)

dac box s2+

Alt...dac box s2+

    i'd been looking for a 65" panel to play my media on and i decided to go with a smart tv, using it as an hdmi display connected to my machine.

    then i discovered that openbsd doesn't support audio over hdmi and my openbsd server doesn't have analog audio output, obviously.

    my tv had been connected to a stereo amplifier anyway, so my setup is actually even better now: a dedicated usb dac connected directly to the amplifier.

      the based setup is very user-friendly if i'm the user, but not so much if someone unfamiliar with the terminal wants to use it...

      also, lots of cables :)

      at least the dac box can draw power from my server over the same usb cable.

      very excited to switch to fully local streaming ❤️

        @hi My daily driver is similarly comfortable to me, but pretty unusable by others…lots of keyboard shortcuts, superfluous window-chrome hidden, lots of dark-mode comfort for my eyes, lots of CLI/terminal interactions 😆

                @hi What are you using to play the videos, and what sort of support for video formats do you have?
