I brought this up on the ALSA list and they basically said it depends on how mpd converts to 32-bit. It depends on how the bits are added. Usually the bits added are low order bits-- this is to ensure that roundoff error does not keep adding noise to the system, and to use a common calculational track no matter wha the input, and so they use a size that is bigger then any possible. On the other hand they may want extra headroom and add the padding at the high end instead.

Start playing in MPD, start oprofile, wait a minute, then stop
oprofile. Generate a report with opreport -g --symbols. Clear the
oprofile data, and repeat with OSS.
If you can, specify a vmlinux image when starting oprofile, because
that allows oprofile to list details within the kernel.

I've moved upsampling duties from mpd to dmix with the following in
/etc/asound.conf:
defaults.pcm.rate_converter samplerate_best
pcm.!default {
type plug
slave.pcm {
type dmix
ipc_key 1024
slave {
pcm hw:0,0
format S24_3LE
rate 96000
}
}
}
but the mpd process still uses almost 100% CPU according to top.
Should the mpd process be the one using all the CPU even though dmix
is the one resampling? Another confusing thing is I tried playing the
same file with mplayer and almost no CPU is used although it is also
going through dmix.
Does this behavior make sense? Is an oprofile report necessary here?

Re: [Musicpd-dev-team] Best Sinc Interpolator
how 'bout upsampling to 48KHz? It should sound significantly better than 44.1KHz. No, every resampling process reduces the (theoretical) quality of the file. Now if a 44.1 file upsampled to 96 sounds better than native 44.1 playback, then that must be a hardware quirk. Maybe the sound chip has a fixed sample rate, and plugs a poor hardware resampler in front of it. I think so too. The manufacturer actually suggested I upsample on the computer. - 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.

Re: [Musicpd-dev-team] Best Sinc Interpolator

My point was: even if libsamplerate eats all your CPU, then switching between OSS and ALSA shouldn't make any difference. I'm curious what's the real cause of this. 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.

Re: [Musicpd-dev-team] 24-bit file plays on a 16-bit DAC?
I got it working with alsa by specifying plughw:0 instead of hw:0. plughw enables half of dmix - i.e. the part of libasound which does the resampling and sample format conversion. That means that ALSA will automatically convert 24-16 if the hardware isn't 24 bit capable. I do hear glitches with plughw:0 that I don't hear when using OSS. It sounds like distortion during the music's peaks. I guess this is due to libasound? Another option could be that your device doesn't support the 24-in-32 format, but only the packed 24 bit format. That's not supported by MPD (yet). There are so many different sample formats and packing standards... I checked with the manufacturer on this and they don't think a USB DAC can support 24-in-32 because the USB driver would chop off anything above 24. Do you think this explains why hw:0 doesn't work? The DAC supports up to 24/96. I believe that the ALSA-OSS emulation enables dmix, and therefore also plughw. I definitely hear glitches from plughw and none when OSS is defined. - Grant -- The NEW KODAK i700 Series Scanners deliver under ANY circumstances!

Re: [Musicpd-dev-team] 24-bit file plays on a 16-bit DAC?
My USB DAC is only capable of 16/44.1 16/48 and doesn't do any sort
of oversampling (non-OS). I tried playing a 24/96 file in gmpc and it
plays just fine. This is puzzling since I have:
audio_output {
type alsa
name USB Monica
device hw:0,0
}
Shouldn't audio be passed off directly to the DAC in this
configuration, without dmix resampling it?
Not exactly. MPD sees that your card cannot do 24 bit, so it converts
internally - and it logs that (--verbose). That's usually better than
letting dmix it do transparently.

Hi Max,
I've finally got my hands on a 24-bit USB DAC and some 24/96 files,
and it works with mpd, but I'm seeing some strange behavior.
I couldn't get mpd to play with any specification of device such as
hw:0,0. It plays if I don't specify audio_output at all, but the DAC
LEDs indicate 16/48 so dmix must be at work.
It does play and LEDs do indicate 24/96 if I specify this:
audio_output {
type oss
name USB DAC
}
I'm not familiar with OSS at all. Does dmix get involved with OSS, or
does OSS have something similar that I might prefer to bypass? I'm
trying to send music from the filesystem to the DAC untouched. Any
other reason to prefer ALSA over OSS?
Do you have any idea why the DAC doesn't work when hw:0,0 is specified? I
get:
# aplay -L
null

Otherwise 24-bit support works great in mpd. Thanks for coding that up!

I got it working with alsa by specifying plughw:0 instead of hw:0.

Re: [Musicpd-dev-team] Feature Request: ratings from Musicbrainz
Musicbrainz is comglomerating ratings of artists, albums, and tracks on its website. This is a great feature and it would be great to see mpd support displaying those ratings at some point. This could be done now outside MPD with the new sticker database. A client could copy ratings from Musicbrainz to MPD stickers. What we still need is support for Musicbrainz tags. Will add that soon. Max Thanks, sounds good. - Grant -- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword ___ Musicpd-dev-team mailing list Musicpd-dev-team@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/musicpd-dev-team

What we still need is support for Musicbrainz tags. Will add that soon. By the way, I have just added support for MusicBrainz tags. Have fun! :-) Max Bonanza! :) - Grant -- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword ___ Musicpd-dev-team mailing list Musicpd-dev-team@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/musicpd-dev-team

Does the client need to support them too? Have you added all MBz tags? See git: http://git.musicpd.org/cgit/master/mpd.git/commit/?id=30e288067529080b9d8ac124af27b7f9522ab152 Easy patch, isn't it? These are the ones which are most important for us, I think. To do anything useful with these tags, the client has to support them, yes. What kind of stuff could a client do with access to that info? - Grant -- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword ___ Musicpd-dev-team mailing list Musicpd-dev-team@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/musicpd-dev-team
[Musicpd-dev-team] No WAV support?
gmpc isn't picking up a few WAV files I have. Is there no support in mpd for WAV?
