Hi Iban,

you are missing my point. A PCM audio stream when consumed by an 
application is expected to be audio. You cannot feed IQ data to a DAC 
and get a analog representation of the original stream. IQ data is not 
PCM audio. As an analogy, if you took your car to the filling station 
and filled the tank, would be unhappy if it had dispensed sand instead 
of fuel.

I do not disagree that interchanging data in IQ form is a good thing, 
all I am saying is that hijacking the PCM audio format to pass it is 
wrong. You are complaining that certain software that expects PCM audio 
data cannot cope with ID data masquerading as PCM audio data. Your 
complaint should be to the producer of the IQ data that has taken a 
liberty with the format.
