OK, I'll try to get that report together. > Why are you resampling to 96 kHz anyway? My DAC sounds much better with libsamplerate upsampling than sending 16/44.1 to it. Upsampling to 88.1 is a lot easier on the CPU, but it doesn't sound quite as good. - Grant ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ OpenSolaris 2009.06 is a cutting edge operating system for enterprises looking to deploy the next generation of Solaris that includes the latest innovations from Sun and the OpenSource community.
