I thought it is another format, just like SAMPLE_FORMAT_S24 and SAMPLE_FORMAT_S24_P32 are distinct formats - even if it is just another representation of the same data. There is no need for output plugins to declare their compatibility. The MPD core asks the output plugin to open with a certain audio format; if the plugin does not support this format, then it will edit the audio_format for the next best one it understands. Then the MPD core will convert the data automatically (more specifically: it will ask convert_filter_plugin to do it). If it suports DSD-inside-PCM, and gets asked to use "true" DSD, it will just ask the MPD core to send DSD-inside-PCM instead. I'd like to make the plugins as simple as possible.
