For context, LDAC is one of the few wireless audio codecs stamped Hi-Res by the Japan Audio Society and its encoder is open source since Android 8, so you can see just how long Windows is sleeping on this. I’m excited about the incoming next gen called LC3plus, my next pair is definitely gonna have that.

    same as @[email protected] I use foobar2000 + wine. ffmpeg is alright, but fb2k is very convenient (especially for replaygain tagging). Afterwards I usually give the files a Picard treatment to get proper tags + covers.

        does it support foobar2000 plugins?

        probably not, since those are windows dlls. So here’s a short list of what I’d want from a fb2k replacement:

        • a UI plugin with the power and flexibility of Facets/Refacets
        • browse library by folder structure OR tags (most only do one or the other)
        • powerful query language to actually find what I’m looking for
        • binaural stereo for headphones plugin
        • convolver
        • convert to opus and replaygain scanning
        • DR Meter
        • handle my >100k tracks library without constantly crashing or being incredibly slow

        Most alternatives I’ve tried can’t even deliver on half of those.
