Although Microsoft does not support Windows XP updates any more, I'm sure there are still many users using it due to their personal habits or job demands. Therefore, XP's product keys may still be necessary. Here lies the most comprehensive list of Windows XP product keys.

The following CD keys are official and original from Microsoft, primarily used for Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2/3 VOL/VLK system images, which are among the easiest to find on the Internet.

Foobar2000 DSD and SACD support

I've successfully followed these steps to get DSD (.dsf filetype) and SACD (.iso filetype) playing at high bit rate using foobar2000 on my S.M.S.L M500 DAC.

Introduction

DSD stands for Direct Stream Digital and it is a high-definition lossless audio format with a twist. PCM signal solutions (like FLAC, TTA or APE) measure a set of bits multiple times per second to capture the audio data, hence the 16/24-bit parameter. On the other hand, DSD uses only one bit but samples it 2.8 million times a second to capture the audio signal.

ASIO Output (Required)
