Hmm, to make sure the 24bit file is interpreted correctly, try the following: # if the mp3 plays fine, continue to next step ecasound -i foo.mp3 -f:s16,2,44100 -o alsa,default # let's convert to higher quality before playback ecasound -i foo.mp3 -f:s24,2,44100 -o alsa,default # now convert into a 24bit wave file (first 15secs of the mp3) ecasound -i foo.mp3 -f:s24,2,44100 -o 24bit_test.wav -t:15 # now playback the wav file ecasound -i 24bit_test.wav -f:s24,2,44100 -o alsa,default Let me know if the above work (and if not, which cases fail). >> echo aio-register | ecasound -c |grep alsa [...] > my output is: > 32. ^alsa$, handled by "ALSA named PCM device".

"ecasound -i foo.mp3 -o alsa,default"). -- http://www.eca.cx Audio software for Linux! _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
