Does anyone have the know-how ...
« on: March 02, 2004, 09:18:00 AM »
... to write a 24-bit FLAC plugin for MacAmp or some other OSX audio application?

Anyone ever done any development for CoreAudio?

There are plenty of 24-bit sound cards that are Mac-compatible...

Greenone is right on that point. The problem is that there is no way to play back FLAC files like there is on a PC (Winamp plugin), so you have to decompress and listen to the WAVs. Major PITA! I know enough about programming that if I had something to work from, I could probably write a plugin, but I'll be damned if I'd have to develop an application too!

MacAmp will play FLACs, but I dunno about 24bit FLACs...

Will either macamp or iTunes play 24/48 and 24/96 WAV/AIFFs? If they can't do this, the answer is not a plugin, but rather a new/mod application.

Heh, what do you know.  MPlayer plays 24 bit flacs just fine.  I downloaded one of your flacs from the CL acoustic show, Matt, and it opened automatically in MPlayer and I'm listening to it right now. ;)

A friend of mine trying it too said 24/96 plays back as if it were 48 ... 1/2 speed. Is this what you're finding?

Edit: this has already been submitted as a bug on their sourceforge page.

Edit 2: Is track-to-track playback gapless?

Yeah, finding the same thing.  Dunno about track to track, I never use it. ;)
