Actually, SB Player supports all sampling rates up to 192Khz. It will internally resample the audio to the output sample rate that was set in Settings. However, resampling can be be very processor intensive and depending of the device, Android version, and the sampling rate of the original audio, the device may not be able to do the resampling in real time. Because of this, it is recommend that you allow LMS to resample the audio if your version supports resampling, since most PC have more than enough power to do it. For LMS versions that don't support resampling, you will see the "unsupported sample rate" message if the sampling rate is higher than the max rate the player (hardware or software) reports as supporting. For SB Player, two settings in Settings > Performance affects the reported max rate: 1) Output Sampling Rate. This will also make the app resample all audio to this rate before sending it into the system. My recommendation is to set this to the most common sampling rate of all your audio so resampling (in the app or on the server) will only be done in a few cases. 2) Emulate 192Khz Support. For servers that don't resample, this is the option you want to enable. It makes SB Player report the max supported sampling rate to be 192Khz. This will allow audio with sampling rates higher than the one set in Output Sampling Rate to be sent to the app. -------------- Squeezebox apps for webOS, Android and Windows Phone, http://www.angrygoatapps.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ wt0's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=18760 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98049 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
