Noob question about dsd audio files in li ux

Hi,

my aim is to build up a linux computer as an audio player for my audio files that are stored on a QNAP NAS. I bought myself a used Lenovo Thinkpad and managed to install Linux Mint onto it. I will use JRiver's Media Center to play my music files. This works fine so far for my HighRes Flac files. The one thing that doesn't work "out of the box", is playing DSD files and I wonder if there is need of some codec files to support DSD files. Maybe some of you can help me out here. Or is there a Linux system out there that is "better" for streaming and playing audio files from a NAS into a DAC via USB? The JRiver Media Center isn't tested for many distributions though and I would like to stick to it.
Thanks for any tipps, as I am quite new to Linux and wouldn't know where to search and look!

What are some useful ls* commands

I'm pretty new to linux, but I've found that the ls* tools (e.g., lsblk, lsusb, lspci, lscpu, lsof, etc.) are supremely useful. It seems like every day I watch some tutorial and learn about another one I hadn't heard of before (just learned about lstopo from a Level1Techs video).

Is there a list somewhere of all the ls* commands? What are some other ones that you know about?

Barrier Download Link?

I have been looking at alternatives to synergy where I can use one keyboard and one mouse and control 2 different computers with two different operating systems, windows and Linux. I’ve looked at some alternatives and the only one I can find is barrier, but I can’t find any download links. Does anyone know where I can find some download links for windows and Linux?

Using Linux Mint Mate

I am a noobie at using Linux. I’ve never done it before and I’ve only heard of using virtual machines and usbs to boot Linux. I know that a disadvantage of USB is that everything that I’ve done will go away after I stop running. Is there any other way of using Linux that makes it local to my computer, just like the current windows OS?

Oracle VP: the world would be a "safer place for data" without OSS DBs

I guess nobody told this dudebro that Oracle manages the world's most popular open source database, and spends money and personnel courting the same community he's pissing on... 😂

Autostart duckdns?

I've been following setup guide on their site for raspberry pi, but in the end it says "to automatically start cron on reboot, in Raspmbc you check the option in the Programs Raspbmc menu in XBMC", which from my understanding refers to media center focused distro, and I'm running Buster, so I have no clue how to start it on boot here.
