this varies depending on the codec; my older thinkpad supports a wider range of sample rates on auich. > > > No, please put that blurb in the mpd.conf patch, instead of poluting > > > MESSAGE. > > > > What about this? > No, that's confusing, please put "Defaults to:" between the two > audio_output_format lines and this is OK with me. that's not the default; default is to perform no sample rate conversion: .B audio_output_format <sample_rate:bits:channels> This specifies the sample rate, bits per sample, and number of channels of audio that is sent to each audio output. Note that audio outputs may specify their own audio format which will be used for actual output to the audio device. An example is "44100:16:2" for 44100Hz, 16 bits, and 2 channels. The default is to use the audio format of the input file. > > ++# If mpd skips a lot during playback, adjust this setting to reflect the > > ++# sound card's sampling rate. > > ++# For example: this text is good, > > ++# audio_output_format "48000:16:2" > > + # > > + #audio_output_format "44100:16:2" I would either just leave the 44K1 example, or just change it to the 48K example, rather than leave both in.
