So, my wife bought me a DAC for my RasPi, but I'm not sure what the next step is. I could just use the SD card image they provide, but I'd really rather integrate it into the install I've already set up.

 

The DAC is from Amazon, it's the for the right model Pi, but it doesn't come with any kind of data sheet to explain what it is or how to use it. There are links on the Amazon page for a boot image, but as I said I'd really rather integrate it into the image I'm using.

 

Any suggestions? Can I make this work with the Raspbian image I've been using for my home theater?

 

For another question - Is that 1/8" jack is audio-out or digital-out?

I opened up the sd card image I found on the amazon page, it refers to the following modules:

i2c-bcm2708

i2c-dev

snd_soc_bcm2708_i2s

bcm2708_dmaengine

snd_soc_pcm5102a

snd_soc_hifiberry_mini

 

Unfortunately, it looks like a lot of these modules are unavailable in apt-get.
