Re: FW: Loss concealment with SBC codec

Hey

the codec settings may make a difference here. 4 subband-encoded audio
sounds better. There are also parts of the code we will target for
better numerical accuracy once some bugfixes are complete.

for devel-related issues, see http://wiki.bluez.org/wiki/SBC

yes. If you use gstreamer, you can separate a2dp transmission from the
codec. It can accept sbc coded material and with a gstreamer patch it
can accept mp3 material (provided your headset has an mp3 decoder).

there is no attempt at packet loss concealment, but we're not opposed
to the idea :)
