Well, there is some wrong and some correct information there. The solution of using generic C code works for getting all output formats, yes (John Lindgren got a wrong impression there about float output being coupled to assembly optimizations). But there also is assembly-optimized decoding to floating point on ARM platforms that feature the NEON instructions (Cortex A8). There is no common build encompassing the different variants like x86 and it is not likely that there will be, as the normal ARM does integer math. There might be a build that combines ARM NEON with generic C fallback code, using floating point math. When audacious insists on floating point data, even on machines that do not feature floating point hardware, you have some options: a) build mpg123 with generic_fpu ... which makes it relatively slow for normal 16-bit playback (or in ARM terms: consuming too much energy), b) patch audacious mpg123 binding to convert 16 bit to float on-the-fly or c) patch mpg123 (or motivate a release) to do that float conversion after decoding, just like 24 bit or unsigned integer types are handled right now. I see a point for the latter one ... it would not be hard to do it. Just a bit pointless in case this is running on a CPU that has working floating point support, or NEON, even. Thoughts from debian? I see this being a problem for packaging as you have to decide for one mpg123 build for stand-alone operation and linking to audacious. Compromises suck.
