[Ffmpeg-devel] ffmpeg audio resolution

Hi all,

I found out that ffmpeg truncates audio with higher resolution to 16 bit.
ffmpeg does this even without dithering, which leads to noticeable
artefacts. This is preventing ffmpeg from professional use in audio
applications.

Is this intentional? If no, what is the technical background for this
limitation?

Cheers
Axel
