Assuming that requires curl. The next version of Snakeoil (Running Ubuntu 16.04) will support that throughout.

That looks interesting. But the script don't work? But this is a good idea. I can probably write something to show the ALSA capabilities and put that in the hardware tab for the next release. Thumbs Up

Not going to implement this for now. Do like the idea of sample once and always play back the upsampled edition. But then my preference is not to touch the users files at all. Something like this will definitely do something wrong for Linux newbs, and Snakeoil is specifically designed to be used by Linux newbs. It's gonna be a bad combination. Tongue

The good thing is Snakeoil is not locked down, so anybody with the Linux know how can easily download this and install this.
