#19 Status bar and playlist view show 24-bit depth for DSD files

[Anonymous]

The status bar and playlist view show that DSD files have a bit depth of 24. This is incorrect, as it should be 1 bit. The sample rate is correct, 2.8224 MHz. Is there a way for me to detect DSD and correct the bit depth? For example, an HDCD file can be detected with $if(%__hdcd%,...

24 bit depth for DSD is a kind of trade-off. Foobar's converter doesn't get 1 bit source. You can detect DSD by samplerate, don't you?

Thanks for the idea. This statement works:

$ifequal($info(samplerate),2822400,1 bit,$if2($info(bitspersample) bits,16 bits))
