if you’ve been following us for a while you know we’re passionate about #Rust! 🦀
who’s “us”?
following where?
is there a reason to particularly care about ᐸwhoever you areᐳ’s passion for Rust?
^ only meant half-seriously to point to the silliness of microblogging to a discussion community.

The codec is basic, uses decades-old tech, and was trivially REed.
Lemmy instance choice does not check out ;)
and for testing you get a wackload of SBCs and Bluetooth chips and test that
I asked because I wasn’t aware of any consumer buds supporting Opus. I wasn’t aware of PineBuds, thank you for mentioning them.
keep in mind that it’s hard to get real numbers on LDAC because decoding is proprietary
I used to think the same. But as it turns out, a decoder exists. Maybe some people don’t want anyone to know about it to keep the myths alive ;)
EDIT: Also, as a golden rule, whenever anyone sees the words High-Res in an audio context, they should immediately realize that they are being bullshitted.
After testing LC3Plus, Opus, and AAC personally for bluetooth, LDAC claims are BS
How did you test Opus for bluetooth?
latency is significantly better then AAC (tested against libfdk) and marginally better then opus
In case you didn’t know, you can use 10ms (or even 5ms) frames with Opus instead of the default (20ms). 10ms should roughly match LC3plus’s default latency while still retaining high quality.
LDAC claims are completely bullshit.
LC3plus is worse than AAC quality wise (to be expected). Lower latency is the only thing going for it. And that’s just because AAC is a very high-latency codec. Opus (as a format) would win on both fronts, although there could be issues with creating a high-quality encoder for it that is not too complex, and power-efficient.
If that’s the case, that’s a good bug in my book.
