First. Love SqueezeSlave. Great work! I found myself looking for something like this because of hi-rez support. I was encouraged to see a wasapi version but upon using it, all my hi-rez material and SACD rips were down-sampled to 44.1khz. Of course, further reading shows that the limitation is within the original code of squeezeslave(correct me if I'm wrong). I use SPDIF output on my computer to an external DAC and the DAC displays what the sample rate is locked in at.
My question is, isn't the point of a wasapi build to "passthrough" the audio file as is? If I launch XBMC and play the music file (using ffdshow codec, WASAPI SPDIF output within XMBC), the music same music files lock in at the correct sample sizes (ie 88khz, 176khz...etc). Is it possible to implement SqueezeSlave in a similar passthrough manner? Even the SqueezeBox hardware themselves are limited through SPDIF. The Touch maxes out at 96/24 and all other players before the Touch downsample hi-rez material to 48/24,16 or 44/24,16 . I was hoping SqueezeSlave would break the barrier. I have a Touch, 2 duets and a classic and have quite a few SACDs recently ripped that are sampled at 176/24 and 192/24. If SqueezeSlave can be implemented the way XMBC passes audio, I'll sell all my players and donate the profits to your team. I'm guessing many people would be willing to pay for a version like this because it would provide something Logitech does not currently provide. And yes, I could use XBMC but I'd have to organize multiple sets of playlists and VortexBox is not an option for me because I'm not ready to wipe out my existing media computer for a new OS :) -- donny619 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ donny619's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=52001 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83362 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
