Basically .wv files are assumed to be WavPack compressed DSD and thus will be reported in all parts of the UI as DSD (based on what MPD reports) instead of 8/88.2 as they current are in some parts of the UI.

Something is unclear to me...

is this true: .wv files are assumed to be WavPack compressed DSD

or this: based on what MPD reports

TRUE -> The assumption for .wv (WavPack) format is that it's compressed DSD (DSF or DFF file) which from what I've read is what WavPack is most commonly used for. WavPack compressed PCM (if it even exists) prolly won't display correct info in the UI. In this case just convert the file to FLAC.

The "based on what MPD reports" comment refers to displaying 'DSD64', DSD128' labels which are contained in the MPD Format tag from lsinfo.

Hmm,

ok, got it.
