I am choosing a snd-aloop loopback hw:3,0,0 as the output device for Squeezelite. I selected it in the Squeezelite settings file to temporarily replace my Topping E30. I noticed in piCorePlayer the bit depth is not normally specified so does that mean the output bit depth is automatically the same as the original file? Is volume of a 16 bit file performed at 24 bit like hardware Squeezeboxes? This is the command I used to save it ffmpeg -f alsa -acodec pcm_s32le -channels 2 -sample_rate 44100 -i hw:3,1,0 fromFLAC.wav so I specified a sample rate but no bit depth so from your reply it would default to 16 bit. I originally wanted 16 bit so I could compare my original 16 bit FLAC file to Squeezelite output directly and show it was bit perfect. Now I am comparing different volume levels I thought I might get better results saving the output at 24 bits. Deltawave correlates the two waveforms correcting for amplitude and the 16 bit waveform looks very blocky at 10% volume [emoji1787] Sent from my Pixel 3a using Tapatalk ------------------------------------------------------------------------ slartibartfast's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35609 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=117236 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
