Hi all, I was trying to setup MPD through pulseaudio at 24-bit or higher bit depth, but it always seemed to treat the output as 16 bit. After some digging around, I found the following comment in the code:
http://git.musicpd.org/cgit/master/mpd.git/tree/src/output/PulseOutputPlugin.cxx#n585 /* MPD doesn't support the other pulseaudio sample formats, so we just force MPD to send us everything as 16 bit */ audio_format.format = SampleFormat::S16; ss.format = PA_SAMPLE_S16NE; I don't know the history or the rationale behind this, so I was wondering: is this still a valid assumption? Is there anything preventing us from opening a higher resolution stream to pulseaudio? I found the list of pulseaudio sample formats which seems fairly comprehensive: http://freedesktop.org/software/pulseaudio/doxygen/sample_8h.html#a3c622fc51f4fc6ebfdcc7b454ac9c05f Thanks, Mrinal ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rapidly troubleshoot problems before they affect your business.
