[MPlayer-users] M player for linux will support lossless format mp3HD?

[Frater AEC]

When playing back files mp3HD in Mplayer for linux recognizes only the
lossy 320kbps. Mplayer will support full mp3HD lossless well as
support other proprietary formats? Before Mplayer had a motto, send us
a format that Mplayer can not play, and will we endure it. Continues
so?

Mp3HD is a lossless audio codec delivering an archival format for
storing digital audio, which has the unique benefit of being able to
be played in standard mp3 on every existing mp3 decoder. Mp3HD is
based on MPEG-1/MPEG-2 Layer 3, with file extension .mp3.
Key features:

Compression: An mp3HD file has 2 components. First is the standard mp3
file, which can be made using any mp3 bit rate. 192kbps is commonly
used as it is virtually indistinguishable from a CD, and is a small
file size. The additional data needed to create a lossless mp3HD file
from the standard mp3 component is automatically calculated from the
chosen mp3 bit rate. No special mp3HD settings are necessary.

Lossless format: Audio quality is equivalent to a CD (100% bit exact
copy). The file size of an mp3HD song is approximately half of a CD
track.

Future Proof: Mp3HD as it is bit exact to a CD can be considered an
archival copy, which is future proof.

Compatibility: Mp3HD files are backward compatible and can be played
on every mp3 devices

Multiple usage: Same as mp3, with more benefits: archival format,
sound preservation and ultimate quality experience

Convenience: Use the same ID3 metadata as mp3 embedded track – album,
artist, track, song, genre, etc.
