I see you've already responded to the issue that dither should be added

This is why they don't do in the "embedded system" aka SB3 anymore .
But since 7.3 something uses SOX
SB3 supports 24bit 48kHz , I tried my 24/48 files, they do not launch
the flac and sox processes in the server.

I think sox actually makes 24/48 of it this 705kbps is a somewhat bogus
number, the players reports on converted bitrates is not to be trusted.
it's similar to other transcoding, but there this number often are a
better guess
However the conversion is running perfectly I *think* it is just this

I had downloaded a sample of Mozart's Violin Concerto No. 4 in D Major
KV 218 Allegro in the 24BIT/96kHz FLAC format a few months ago and had
totally forgotten about how good it sounded. For reference, the site
where I downloaded is: www.2l.no/hires/index.htm
That site's server isn't up at the m
