here is the response from the designer of the dac (DS) QUOTE -"The DS is reporting the number of bits that are changing. i.e. if it reads 16 bits then the bottom 8 bits are always zero on each input sample. In general displays of sample rate and bit rate on players either describe the size of the samples in the input files or the size of the samples at the last stage of processing, but they arent looking at the actual data in the samples like the DS is. Either the upsampler isnt really calculating a full 24 bits per sample or theres some configuration parameter that causing only 16 bits to be sent to the DAC."- UNQUOTE So, what SoX is doing is adding 8 zeros to the end which effectively is again 16 bits. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mcduman's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66702 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105309
