Bits Per Sample & Sample Rate Conversions about ffmpeg-audio-encoder HOT 3 OPEN

This shouldn't be too difficult to implement

from ffmpeg-audio-encoder.

There is already a sample rate conversion that is supported by each codec

However, bit depth conversion is not supported at this time. In general MOST lossy codecs actually only support 16 bit. This would not be modifiable in the lossy codecs. Could add support for it in the lossless codecs which is really just FLAC.

So not sure if this is worth looking at anymore than this. However, adding SOXR as the resampler might be worth it, but this would only be builds of FFMPEG that supports it. (I think by default most of them do now)

Totally missed the Sample Rate option in there. ;)

Don't think i've every seen an lossy that's not 16-bit. As you say, 24-bit is seen in lossless files as FLAC, WavPack etc.

SoX is said to be the best one out there according to many.

Try and add the best solution in your mind when it comes to bit depth conversion.
