For your requirements I don't think Softsqueeze is a good
startingpoint.

* it emulates the old generation of players which have monchrome bit
mapped displays.  This means your 1920x1080 display will still be
limited to 320x32 pixels albeit scaled to 1920x1080 - no color, no cover
art.

* Softsqueeze uses Javasound - to alter as you intend would require
taking out all Javasound and putting in a custom subsystem - this would
rewrite about 50% of the code.

* SBS already does upsampling as required - you seem to be
re-implementing existing server functionality.

With all the suggested changes I think you would end up rewriting 75%
of Softsqueeze. I think you would be better off starting with
Squeezeplay and using the newer command & control protocol - this would
give give colour and higher resolution (e.g. touch has 480x272 but you
can define your own screen size) and so use the 1920x1080 display
properly and adding a model to SBS which is capable of playing 24/192 -
look at Vortexbox mods and Vortexbox player to see how this is done.
