ffmpeg can't handle 24 bit audio files?

[Lou Cipher]

Seems like ffmpeg can't handle 24 bit audio files. When playing and 24 bit audio file the log reports:

Code: Select all

DEBUG InputStreamReaderThread - (/var/subsonic/transcode/ffmpeg) Incompatible sample format 's32' for codec 'pcm_s16be', auto-selecting format 's16'

Anyone knows how to fix this? I there a newer version of ffmpeg that handles 24 bit audio?

96Khz 24 bit flacs play ok on mine.
What are the details for the file(s) you are trying to play?

Thank you for your response. The file I used is a 24/96kHz flac file. I just downloaded a free test file from http://www.2l.no/hires/index.html and it reports the same in subsonic.log. It does play the file but I think it is being converted from 24 bit to 16 bit.
