Flac PCM only 48khz, 16bit

Hello,

i’m running the Android version of Kodi 17 on a FireStick. My goal is to have “bit correctness” from the sourcefile to my AVR. So i don’t want Kodi to resample my audiofiles.

I tested the bit correctness with flac files and the result is always the same. No matter which sample rate oder bit depth the input file has the output according to my Pioneer AVR is the same: 48 khz, 16bit.

I tried all the different sound options in the audio settings page – best match – optimized – fixed (tried all possible samplerates) the output is just 48 khz, 16bit.

Is this a “Kodi” problem, a Linux or Android problem?

If there is a solution please let me know.

Best regards
Das-Korn
