I actually found a new use for HQPlayer with BACCH. I use it either to upscale to 24-192 or to downscale to 24-192 and feed PCM like that into BACCH4Mac. The Mac does not have to think about bitrate then. It is always fed the same. Downscaling is much more calculation intensive than is upscaling. It is not just a matter of dropping every other bit. I can get DSD64 down to 24-192 reliably with no glitches ever. To get DSD128 down to 24-96 was just not going well. But to 24-192 works fine.
