Moode USB Output

[Tim Curtis]

There is no _deviceout.conf file in 7.3.0 and _audioout.conf is set via the ALSA output mode option in Audio Config. The "plughw" ALSA plugin performs automatic format conversion if needed. In other words if the format being sent by the player application is not valid for the audio device then ALSA will attempt to adjust the bit depth and sample rate to a format the device accepts. Thats how it is supposed to work.

Also note that the Spotify and Airplay renderers always output to "plughw" regardless of the ALSA output mode setting.

The alsacap output in your previous post shows that the audio device accepts 16 bit format at sample rates ranging from 8K to 48K.

I have no idea why the device only plays 48K and not 44.1K.
